Christuraj Alex Poet Rhyme

July Celebrations In India

Elegant wooden chariots are pulled by devotees;
In scorching sun, like buzzing bees, many on naked knees;
Though superstitions form parts of Puri festive features,
Gods and goddesses freely mingle with human creatures...!

Feats fill the Royal Enfield Himalayan Odyssey,
Riders at landscapes as though exploring geodesy;
Venture into vast adventures unfazed of life and death,
Young and old relish, ecstatically holding their breath...!

International Mango Festival is a wonder,
Mango marvels like fleshy jewels, our palettes plunder;
Displaying more than five hundred genre of mangoes,
Midst them are Dussehris, chausas, fuslis and Alphonsos...!

The Big India Food Festival is precious as well,
Where mouth watering dishes and delicacies compel;
Each day is a festive in India incredible,
Visit us! With songs and dances, enjoy each edible...!
