1. Santa Claus Santa is on the way  Euphoric is the air  Looking for it here and there  Grey hair and the suit is red  Red and white cap on the head  Dashing through the snow!  Santa laughs: ho! ho! ho!  The jingling of the bells  Through the snowy hails  Awaited is the Christmas gift!  Santa is in the midst of mist! 2.

You are a tender-hearted soul.  In our lives, you play a vital role. 3.

  Does Nature Reclaim The Man's Retreat? The fear of drastic consequences of frequent weather fluctuations and climate change has put nature in the reclamation. Human beings who think of themselves as the wittiest species on earth are sitting conquered, failed to tackle the curse of Mother Earth. It has been battered by hurricanes, cyclones, floods, and tsunamis as warnings. The man continues to underestimate these warnings. Consequently, they are at receiving the end. The survival of the human race is in danger.  The booming metropolis, deducing tree cover, increasing population and other single-minded destructive activities have contributed a great deal to retreat the natural environment. Amid the unprecedented coronavirus and global lockdown, scenes worthy of a Disney film have emerged, from swans gliding through the now clear canals of Venice to the blue sky over China where the air is usually chocked with smog. It proves how fast nature can reclaim the world. The world has alr
