«I Love My Birthplace»

Each person has his favourite city or settlement, more often it is the place, where you were born, where you spent your childhood with which we have the kindest memories. Despite the age, a person always remembers some moments from his childhood the places connected with it. This tow, settlement shouldn`t be capital at all, it is always the best and it arouses a lot of pleasant impressions.

As for me, I was born in Meshchera  krai , in a small settlement. It is Zolotkovo, Gus-Crystalny district. Despite the fact that it is not well-known, I do love it.                                                                              Everyone shows his love to a native place in deferent ways: composers compose music, artists draw pictures, poets write verses, and I admire my birthplace in my own way.

The beauty of my native is original and attractive. The settlement is located in the centre of the picturesque forest with pine trees, birches, fir trees on high sandy hills, covered with needles and cones; mighty oak forest on the river banks. Our forest attarct a lot of people from different places because in summer and autumn it is rich in berries and mushroom. And how fresh our air is, it smalls of pine tar. It is always quiet and calm in our pine forest, even in windy weather.

I love Zolotkovo, I don`t know for what exactly, but I do it. I compare my love to my birthplace with love to my parents, my boyfriend. I was born here attend school and have met my first love. Meshchersky krai is my Motherland and I`m proud of it!
