What Is Cooking

Indian cooking

A veritable potpourri

Diverse in spices,

A cultural mix(es).

Changing in taste

Eat slow and don’t make haste

From coast to coast

One can raise a toast.

Don’t scream shrill, just chill

The hotness is all to do with green chill(i).

Sometimes a bit of cardamom

The aroma in the hands of your mom.

Just a bit of pepper

To the taste, it will temper.

Just a dash of clove and nutmeg

For a second helping, it will make you beg.

If you like it spicy

You can be choosy

If you like it bland

You have come to the wrong land.

Follow the food trail

Like the dog wag your tail.

In happiness and bliss

In so far, the food never gives it a miss.
