Sweet Summers of Yore

A fruity aura that floods memory and bedazzles,
A joy that palpitates with sweet summers of yore.
An aura that seduces, teases and puzzles,
A feeling that blinds the conscious and makes the soul soar.

Colours of pleasure and a texture of elation,
Colours of blush daubed across by a flirting sun.
Shouts in earnest and of perspiration,
Livelihood perched on head - basket of marvel and fun.

Titillating the tongue, a heavenly ordain,
Sometimes sweet and sometimes oh-so mildly and pleasantly tartly,
It is that time of year again,
Alphonso in all verve, joys limitlessly and pleasures profusely!

Jackfruit Jam - another favourite of mine.

Aah the pleasures of summer.
The mangoes most suffer our hunger
Yet it is the humble nimboo and the watermelon
That cool us down when we from the excessive heat sicken
Coconut water was never so welcome
Milkshakes galore rule the drinks kingdom
Cucumber slices garnished with salt and pepper
Aah how could we without all these combat summer?

Happy Hot Months Bro.

Personally I love the Badami and the Dasherri :)
