You are too cool! That poem is great. I remember that ref to Neembu Daadim. But not the poem. I think we should ask Prerna.

Now that you mention aloo and baingan, there is an old fillum song that goes ‘aloo ki bhaaji baingan ka bharta, bolo ji bolo kya khaoge..’ sung by Kishore and Lata. The kind of absurd rhyme/ poetry that appeals to me…

I remember having to learn the Daffodils poem by heart in school, not having the foggiest idea of what they looked like or why Wordsworth got so carried away by them. And now, they are among my favorite flowers!! Walking through Central Park in New York in the early spring with daffodils in bloom everywhere is one of life’s great pleasures.

If my daffodils bloom, I will probably pull up a chair and park there
