An Ode to Delhi

Chilly wind
Hair billowing
Rossy cheeks
Misty evenings
Red bricked ruins covered in creepers and moss
Lush green lawns
Magestic Ashoka trees
Squirrels scampering around
Politically correct Fabindia kurtis
Branded denims
Milky masala chai
Stale Marlboro Lights
Friends perched a top uneven walls


*glossary
fabindia kurtis - cotton tunics adorned by the young politician and intellectuals
ashoka trees - botanical name saraca indica
masala chai- spiced tea
