A RESIDENTIAL AREA IN GURGAON 
PHOTO AVTAR MOTA SEPTEMBER 2013.

Based on my regular  visits to Gurgaon  Haryana , I have scribbled some lines as my impressions .  I am now combining all these impressions together and  giving  them the  shape  of  a long poem in  5 segments . The opening  segment   of the poem is Titled DHOBI ( Washerman )  .   Dhobi is illiterate and is  from a village in Bihar  . He is young and  married and the need to earn a livelihood has driven him to this  far away city. His wife lives with his parents  in the village waiting, waiting and waiting .   And for knowing welfare  of the family back home , he is dependent on someone who can read his letters.

 This is a simple poem about the life that exists in this new   city of Skyscraper . I have used a  line from  my favourite  childhood  play song   “TIPPY TIPPY TOP ” in this poem . The poem is Titled   GURGAON . I am uploading  four   segments today.

DHOBI ( WASHER MAN  )

Purshotam Dhobi Ghar Aayaa

Jaib Mein Biwi ka Khat Laaya

“ Sahib Issay Zaraa Pad Lena

Ghar Ka haal Hamein Kah Denaa ”

“Jo Paisa Tum Ne  Thhaa Bhejaa

Sab Ka sab Amma Ne Chheena

Hum To Baandhi Majdooran Hain

Sevaa Tyaag Hamaara Dhan Hai

Ram Saran Bhaiyaa Jab Aavay

Amma Ussay  Dakait Bataavay

Kab Aaogay Iss Lanka Mein

 Sita Karay Vilaap ”.......

Iss Nagri Ka Guru Mantar Hai 
Apnaa Rasta Naap ....

Iss Ki Jhuggi Haal Niraala 
Daaru Mein Dhuut Hai Ghar- vaala 
Bachay Din Bhar Reit Mein Khelein
Nangay Paanv hain Kapday Meilay 
Bees Baras Mein Boodi ban Kar 
Kehtee Jeevan Shraap ........
