Kaaju ki burfi (Cashew nut sweets)

Diwali just went by,
people have returned from home
in the gloomy restricted walls of GH
new fragrances, sweet aromas roam

working on the scheduled projects
I was the only one who stayed back
so people never forget to drop by
and offer me diwali's sweet pack

I was happy and contended
but missed my special sweet
my all time favorite
'kaaju ki burfi' treat

but it just so happened today
when I approached one of my mates
that she appeared to be gulping down
something I can never hate!

A deliciously wrapped 'Kaaju ki burfi'
my mouth watered fast
I hesitated but then I asked
can I by any chnace get one?

but she said,

Oh sorry, it was the last!

Kaaju ki burfi is a very favorite sweet of mine.. I missed it on Diwali Coz I stayed back at the hostel.
Diwali is an Indian Festival, the festival of light and of sweets ( I love it coz of the second part)
