Category: Oh my dearest India, how I love you so
I flew 14 hours direct, just missing the home snow.
When I arrived at the airport, you greeted me with trepidation
But eventually you opened your arms and I felt such elation.
I couldn’t wait to see you, so I hopped the next bus
I would ride another 18 hours, through your “fog” and tremendous clouds of dust.
By day two of that bus ride, I was ridin’ dirty with homies
I wouldn’t trade that for the world, ‘cause you’re my one and only.
With your marble white skin, red sandstone monuments,
And sickly children that still grin
I knew I still had 10 more days, that my courting was just at ‘begin’.
On the steps of Fort Amber, I was embarrassed when I said ‘Alice’
You were so kind and so forgiving, and said “Head over to Water Palace.”
