Aligarh

Astir, nightly shows—
orchestras of vehicles play
the chords in the streets.

True-blue tea-lovers—
drinking views with samosas,
English coffeehouse.

Glistening at daytime—
dainty neighbourhoods bask in
soft showers of peace.

Taking in the town—
orange sun ducks behind a
skyline of jet trees.
