Half a cup of boiling water
Two teaspoon of sugar
Half a cup of boiling milk
Two teaspoon of tea leaves
So fresh and evergreen
Dried so brown with enchanting flavour
Just two whistle on boiling kettle
Makes our tea delightful forever
Few sprinkle of Cardamom
Two dew drops of ginger
Will give a mix flavour.
Especially it's a joy to have flavoured tea while having bathed in heavy waterfall.
When Bushi Dam overflows, the water falls down the steps below
Some just enjoy to sit on steps while some under heavy waterfall
Water is chilling cold and breeze will freeze you down.
To have the hot tea flavoured, from hawkers stall is really tempting
To have a sip while shivering in cool breeze
Cutting tea is the favourite of mumbaikars
Just a small sip of four empties your cutting glass of tea.
Drizzling rains
Playing and dancing in rain
Shivering with the cool breeze blowing all over you
With a corn cob just roasted in fire
Sprinkled with salt, chilly powder and few dices of lemon juice spread all over.
Make a delightful taste especially in wet rainy season.
And a cutting tea in hand
Makes our weekend filled with joy so profound ever!
So do you wish to visit the Busy dam in Lonavala
Which is the famous picnic spot especially during heavy rainfall
Why not to enjoy the bountiful beauty of nature along with
hot flavoured cutting tea and grilled spicy corn.
Don't forget to visit the nearest beautiful station Khandala
Which will add flavours to your weekend!
Where one cannot stay away from Trekking!
................................................................................
Note. Lonavala Just next to Khandala in Maharashtra,
Famous song Bollywood song....Aathi Kya Khandala!
Cutting tea mean a small glass of tea, and tea keeps on boiling in big vessel.
Lonavala and Kandala are famous hill stations and famous tourist spot.
Winter season, these places are covered with thick fog, one cannot see even the vehicle coming.

Lonavala in the rains A maiden beautiful to serenade Eating vada pav in the cold Feeling high, I am often told That there is no better way to unwind From big city blues that hold us in a bind.......... Madam, Your poem brought back age old memories of that fantastic place. A very good write, but you missed out on the famous chikki, that the place is also known for..........
