Her vegetable vendor
Her vegetable vendor, ‘a nice man’, Known for his wile nor sly, rather for smile, Unaware of his cunning and sly guile, Who proved the point: it pays to please a fan. He was game to bid a round of bargains, For return of tomatoes raw or ripe, Brinjals less brown and onions...

Custard Apple Vendor
I look at the green crocodile balls placed in handcrafted bamboo basket They look ripe and tempting. The snake skinned vendor looks at me with hopeful eyes His turtle legs skin with every vein visible is a testimony of many days of hunger He wears a wrinkled robe of silk over them His brahminy blindsnake skin glistens in...

A Street Vendor
The sun is up, heat unbearable, He stands there rejected and miserable, Slowly hope he loses, as every potential buyer refuses. His goods remain unsold, His misery untold. Swiftly the night approaches, And his hunger encroaches. He packs up and leaves, Despite everything, he calmly sleeps......
