SummerNova

Of early mornings, sweltering noons and welcome evenings

Of languid baths, baked pancakes of faces and cold water face washes

Of kacche aam ki sharbat, aerated soft drinks and just about anything liquid

Of wishing classes got over early and rushing back for basketball sessions

Of Chutti Chutti, Jungle Book and Alif Laila

Of Ducktales, Chandrakanta and Chitrahaar

Of power cuts, shadow games and spook stories in the dark

Of Antaksharis and Dumb Charades

Of holiday homework and planning pranks

Of Hardy Boys, Nancy Drew and Famous Five

Of visits to the village and reunion with cousins

Of days spent in the playground with illusions of greatness

Of nights spent on the terrace making patterns in the sky

Of summer months, holidays and childhood

Of memories still fresh as the morning dew

P.S...This is my take on the tag which I was asked to do by Aditi.
@Aditi...dunno whether this qualifies, was sort of confused regarding this tag...so just went ahead on this chain of thoughts:)
