Poem

Dream Of Spices

 

My mother would say:

“Little boy Raj…

Go to Muthu’s

and get some

cinnamon, betel leaves

and ginger and garlic.”

 

And so I go to the shops

singing all the way

and when Muthu asks me

what I’d want

I rattle off a list:

“Sesame seeds, onions

tomatoes and pickles”

 

And back home,

Mother twists my ears

Ouch!
