Pitha

smell from the grandma's kitchenette
that fills the whole abode
my little heart and my hungry tummy too
Pithas or Rice-cakes
this are native legacies
wrapped with fondness
served on english platter with elate

Roadside stalls
Buzz with traffic's cadences
Benches lined up with the critters 
Along the whirls of leaves and the roars of branches 
'The tea tumblers cuddles the pithas'!!
