From Market Poem by Pradip Chattopadhyay

From Market

Rating: 5.0


A kilo of fish brinjal pumpkin
Cauliflower raisin and bean
Washing soap and eggs one crate
Need to buy bring from market!

Mustard oil some milk and rice
Cashew nut and a horde of spice
Gourd and potato spinach cabbage
The list is long fills a page!

Feel confused from where to start
How to pile and stack on a cart
Shoeshine cream to adhesive glue
All calculations and maths to do!

Ticked what's got unticked what's not
Cash dwindles with much unbought
Trudge back home in sweated daze
She checks items and fumes in rage!
