Let's beat the heat ...where waves would meet !




The month of May and the intensity of heat
The hut so warm where the waves would meet,

The friendly winds touched our faces cold
It didnt let the sun to get the hold,

Adults put on their hats and shades moving towards the sea
Children splashed in the water and yelled, "wheeeeeee",

The sand rose up and a beautiful sand castle was made
A minute it was there, in the other i saw it fade,

Some people enjoyed playing with the waves
Others were hiding inside the hut-caves,

The water splashed far and wide
More opted for swashing and less for the camel ride,

After initial moments of fun morning meal was given out
Puri, tarkari, cholay and tea was what the breakfast was all about,

As quickly as we could, we finished it up
To get that hot, warming tea in the cup,

Tucked up our shirts and rolled up our jeans
Went for the sea again and lived it up like teens,

Small waves were followed  by larger ones
Fathers went towards the sea depth along with their sons,



A large wave came grabbing with it some of the jouyful souls
The rest of us wildly caught hold of them so it came back with only a few shoe soles,

Suddenly the subtle savor of the lunch menu filled the air
Who would wait for tikka and biryani, would'nt you care?



 Diving into the food seemed heavenly rather than diving in the sea
A glass of chilled coke please -- that would be me,

Lunch was done and sun was on high
Sunning ourselves on the shore gave us a tan , sigh!,

All the fun and all the splashes were worth every dime,
Everyone was ready for --selfie time !!!,

Clickety click here and a clickety click there
Slippers coated with sand and all feet bare!,

Honk! honk! signalled the cars for packup
We tried to resist... but time was up,

Finally we decided to call it a day
Who would have enjoyed such in the month of May!
