Festive mood in the -

air, here and there, everywhere .

Chritmas is coming .

The banjaras sit

With their mortars and grinders.

Few buy, few pass by.

13.12.2026

The pavement their home.

With blankets and stoves, waiting -

For their wares to sell.

14.12.2025.

In the festive air

I see despair  in their eyes.

No one buys their wares.

15.12.2025 

Husband, wife and child,

Standing together, urging

People to buy toys.

No one looks at them.

Sometimes a balloon is bought

And sometimes a ball.

16.12.2025

The Banjara kids

Tug at other kids to buy

Streamers and balloon

17.12.2025

The fair is over

Bricks, burst balloons  lie scattered.

The banjaras  gone.
