Her Jodhpur Oneirisms (Jodhpur Is a City of Rajasthan, India)

(Jodhpur is a beautiful, cultural, historical city in Rajasthan, India. This poem is all about Jodhpur from her mouth as she told). Left behind her beamish days of time of life, her days of girlhood… Left behind her mother’s warmth and faced against frailties, She left behind her father’s ires and raced against entelechies. She brought with her those memories, At once she wailed and bemused she smiled She brought with her those glosses, palled in her eyes. Left behind her rainbow and lived in blues She smiles in low, her eliding Jodhpuri days. Felled by griefs when thought of those kites at mackerel sky Her heart yelled mutely at the Marwar soothed musical bliss fly. There she drew by the Nagaur Turban and adorned faunae Ceased by arts of jugglers, puppeteers and spread her wings with the winter newbie. Revived with these memories she framed her ethnic hospitality Multihued costumes and the aura of the folk dances attired by the society. The copious finesse graced by palatable cuisine Kachori, mirchibada and panchkuta are edible by. Her blue eyes sobbed by her memories of palship A walkover by the Balasammand lake One will pass by the bird of Juno by the lush greenery. The Sunset splashed with spectacular colours, She enjoyed those days passing by the blue hills and envying canvas. Retraced by the red sandstone and columnar, spire temples She sketched her agone days with those prayers Devoted towards the Shrine, deities and heroes of decades forgone. Her heart thumped by her memories of gossips Becharmed by the Forts and palaces, The bygone era still reminds the battles fought Witnesses still stand still by the chronicle held upon. Lost by these memories colorful She vivified in her vignettes She brought up herself with the city And she slept by the daydream known as Sun City.
