| Lavender Sky as the day winds down. |
From the mountains
of the Himalayas
to the coast of the sea.
We rode the skies
-all in one day.
Cousins play jenga
the tower collapses.
Scarves sway
with sorpotel and poee.
Noodles of Sikkim
Alle Vongole
October rain
over sultans of swing.
Mindful of the trees
the Santro reverses
Local cashew feni
with a side of beef roast.

Notes
-Lavender Sky: name of mocktail
-Alle Vongole: Italian dish made of spaghetti and clams (teesrio)
-October rain: unseasonal rain baffles all. Reminiscent of 'November Rain' by Meatloaf.
-Sultans of swing: song by Dire Straits
-Santro: My father's vehicle which we drive.
