So September ended
And someone woke me up
As previously promised
~ Oh! The ever painful pinky
Always randomly hitting stuff
And bringing up pent up sh*t
Aren’t you supposed to be a secret? ~
I tear the daily calendar sheets
And suddenly here we are…
There is more torn than less to tear
IT IS OCTOBER
The month of Mahatma Gandhi
A magnificent man who
Truly walked the walk
All the way to Dandi
And paved the way
Towards democracy
with secularism ,
He took a bullet for it too.
#respect
Then comes navratri
9 days of steaming hot culture
Which defines South India for you.
Sundals , ancient dolls and Carnatic music
All wrapped in a silk saree
That is golu for you.
And to
cap it all off
We have the crowning jewel of Indian
culture
DIWALI – the festival of lights
The big boom of crackers,
The smell of ghee emanation from all the
delicious sweets
*Ah all the calories
I already feel fat now*
The colour popping from all the traditional
clothes
Can make even a blind man shy
This is India at its most glorious
All are invited
With family
Please RSVP!
I tear more sheets
and
The month is over now!
Absolutely no work done
I carry around a few more kgs
And a bucketload of memories J
