I Love My Food, Kashmir Style. Poem by Noorie Ali

I Love my rice, with all sauces, lentils, chicken or plain,
I love to lick my Kulfi, when it drips and i catch -
the falling drops onto my tongue as it melts away
swiftly.

I love my samosa, Pakora,
my hot, greasy Kebab.
With red ketchup, on top.
I love my Chapati, Naan bread with the fresh meat on top.
I like my salad, creamy and luscious.
I like my cauliflower curry
my plum Chutney
my Desi Ghee
and i like all things buttery

i love my aloo-Gosht
my Egg on toast
my Chips 'N Ceema

I like my prantha Crispy
with my Achar Sour but sweet.

i like my food to be:
presentable and neat.

I love my Rasmaly, my Pink, cold, Falooda.
I love my jammy Doughnuts, my chocolate fudje Cake.
i like my Gulab-Jaman.
my strawberry, my Milkshake'S.

i like my Crips' my soft Drinks
my Bombay mix

Love my Chai' my Coffee.
