Character: Rose Ringed Parakeet Couple
Location: Hauz Khas Lake Complex with adjacent monument which was actually a Madrasa in Mughal era
Background: I along with my son Akshaj and friends spotted this couple well settled in a spacious cavity on the wall of this Mughal era monument. They seemed to be enjoying their newfound place adjoining the lake.
Looking for a house, amidst summer loo and Delhi heat,
On the verge of giving up, I saw Mr. and Mrs. Parakeet.
I thought they lived on trees in a flock,
South Delhi lakefront palace hole, now I was in shock!
This was the place for Mughal kings,
Definitely not for creatures with wings!
With wonder and angst, I shouted out
“Dear feathered friends. What is this all about?
How come you get to stay amidst history?
While I sweat broker to broker;
To me it is all a mystery.”
Not expecting to hear back,
I almost fell off my track,
Mr. Parakeet was mimicking me,
“Dear two legged friend, we will answer thee…
Just keep your voice down
The kids are sleeping; don’t be such a clown!”
Mrs. Parakeet continued with a twinkle and smile
“Finding a house in Delhi takes awhile,
Don’t fret; everything will be fine,
We found ours on MagicBricks.com, app or online!
Property sahi, milegi yahin !!”
