T 3, New Delhi

It is one of the most prestigious places of India.
The achievement of Government is visible in every inch
or the sign of prosperity of India.
Seeing the palatial design,
One forget that he is in India.

it is almost 2 am now., waiting for my next flight
with sleepy eyes.
People are sleeping in transit lounge in the
first floor of the departure building.

Some are coming, some are going to their
check in counters.
The FM radio of T3 echoes the old Hindi songs,
Trolly bags moves with a burden
of the weight on their back
people are moving with a shadow of
sleepy and tiring body

it is 3.30 am now.
my eyes are trying to get a relief,
but my alarming body takes care of by baggage
all of a sudden appears 3 young boys.
making ready their counter.
4 or 5 young girls appear other side

getting ready with their tasks
now the counters are ready,
alerting their clients to be in line
Once the work is done for client,
the staff sighs in relief,
But another pax come to the desk

its quarter past 4 now in the early morning
Moving ahead after check in process,
found a que where people are waiting,
yes. it is the space for bathing and 'fresh en up',
same as in a railway station in India,

Some body changes dress for a bath
some one waiting for the chance to go loo,
someone waits for the turn to the wash base to
brush the teeth and clean the face..
destinations are different,
but the commotions are same,
though it is an airport
or a railway station
or a bus station any part of the world,

further ahead the security check in progress.
These are only one who really conquers their sleep,
what to say further, they have to be alert,
else the security of our country will be
in great trouble.

walking towards the boarding gates,
we can find enough people moving around.
some one enjoys their early morning breakfast
in the cosy restaurant space ahead,
where some one sleeps int he couches comfortably,
nothing matters to them since their time has not yet come...
some one sits in the lavish lounge of a smoking bar...
some one further ahead looking for the sovenirs
day or night , there is no difference here in airport.....
