III. Now a days, people can glance/ have an image capturing a particular mood using their dual mobile phone. So, the old pond is very alone! There is an apprehension that some people may fill it up too! We must preserve pond as it maintains ecological balance!

II. A bride used to glance her face on the water surface introducing a break in her busy schedule of works, so and so forth. By now, those people are no more alive to use it.

I. The pond, once, was a very useful source of water, place for bathing/ recreation etc. Ladies used to chit-chat while fetching water from the pond.

Sterling imagery! Ponds are often isolated but it's so soothing to find a pond in our wanderings. Nature is receding due to urbanisation but it's still powerful.
