Poorvashada and Uttarshada—<br />

fireworks enough<br />

o<br />

We climb the mountain<br />

behind lumbering trucks,<br />

dodge the hurtling buses<br />

on the downhill.<br />

How the sharp-ridged<br />

copper snake survives<br />

its road crossings,<br />

we’ll never know.<br />

We stop to look at<br />

manicured tea plantations<br />

where women pluck each leaf.<br />

In Munnar metal kitchen-wares<br />

are strung like jewels,<br />

mannequins are hung with garments,<br />

the market-place pulses with<br />

fresh vegetables and fruits.<br />

A blue-shirted boy poses<br />

in his carefully stocked stall.
