Dosas

That ceaseless craving for dosas 
Remains wherever I go around
When water drizzled on hot tawa
And Fssssss..............,
 I hear the most awaited sound

Bhaiya, make it a little crisp and little soft, 
Dheeme tawe ki aach pe
A little more butter with sprinked gun powder 
Aur.. thoda dhaniya dalo na saath me 

Sambhar doesn't matter, 
Chutney would suffice
Keep it gadha and dare you put ice
Better, fold the dosa respectfully 
Its the sight on my plate that means the world to my eyes 

Today, things have changed.
You see, my choices are getting absurd
Dosas on the menu doesnt get attention
The fssss.....sound somehow goes unheard
Not sure how, when and what went wrong
Why are my taste buds acting weird ?

Something seemed so heavenly 
is just another dish today 
And so are many other things, people I guess,
May be they were never here to stay

So, let me relish dabeli on my way
Before this changing world drive me nuts
Bhaiya, thoda kadak ...butter maar ke 
And please put some extra masala peanuts...
