to pay homage
to their ancestors
on pitru paksha day
to banganga tank
they make their way
it is said that
their ancestors
com down on earth
for their departed souls
they pray
clean shaven bald
migrants from
uttar pradesh
who in mumbai stay
offerings on dry leaves
that serve as tray
a lamp lighting
a path floral
tributes they pay
each year
in every way
with warmth
soulful serenity
undying
memories as always
touched by the
soothing
reinvigorating
suns rays
hope and hindutva
a message of
peace and humanity
captured by a
barefeeet blogger
on a gray
cloudless day
amchi mumbai
jai maharashtra
jai ramji ki
sab theek thak
okay
