a summer wishlist
langour
dandelion on the roadside
shades from the sun
i wish i could eat water
water melons
musk melons
water melon juice
water melon popsicles
water melon cubes
cut fruits
salivate to fruition
chilled mangoes
raw mangoe juice
aam panna
water cooler
less ice
more cool
a kerchief soaked in water, half-drained, half-wet
soothing fan air
still air
less chatter
more sleep
more time to read
more time to eat drink water
more time to watch mindless tv
less drama
more mirth
less miracles
more magic
walking everyday in the shade
more dawns, dusks and early mornings and late nights
less talk
less touch
more breath
more wishes
less going
more coming around
more lemon
no pillows
less sheets
tied hair
combed dogeared pages of childhood favourite short story books by Ruskin Bond
palms pressed against cold surfaces
a nose for the cold. solemn quiet
more poems
less words
more words
movies and life
and
langour
