on a pilgrimage, <br />to pay homage, <br />devout come to take a dip <br />despite the chill <br />to wash off their sins... <br /> <br />at the bank of Ganges, <br />chanting mantras <br />recited by the sages... <br /> <br />looking solemn <br />and serene <br />unmindfully, going <br />back to the same <br />old routine...<br /><br />Mamta Agarwal<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-way-of-life-3/
