I didn't want the grandiloquent Taj mahal to live in,
A solitary hut with fortified walls would beautifully suffice.

I didn't want to drink chicory mugs of opulent cherry wine
A glass of holistic water was all I needed to quench my thirst.

I didn't want ornate embellishments of cloth to drape my persona,
Jagged rags of jute blended with firmly riveted buttons would work as a wonderful substitute.

I didn't want mesmerizing rhymes sung by the matron in order to sleep,
The monotonous cacophony of vehicular traffic would prove to be an adept tranquilizer.

I didn't want flamboyant cars to traverse the grey carpet of roads,
The non-polluting multiple spiked bicycle would help me maintain my circulation of blood.

I didn't want the silken floss of brush to scrub the armory of my teeth,
Serrated sticks of medicinal neem would render my palette with a ravishing scent all sunlit day.

I didn't want swim in the luxuriously sculptured glistening water pool,
Instead I wanted to feel the exhilaration while trespassing through choppy waves of the saline ocean.

I didn't want to consume pasteurized milk juxtaposed with flavored milk,
Fresh droplets of milk oozing from the teats of mother cow was the one indispensable for my bones.

I didn't want to exorbitantly applauded by scores of innocuous individuals
Benevolent prayers from within deep recesses of their heart would be enough to make me ecstatic.

I didn't want artificial contrivance's to illuminate the atmosphere,
The dazzling light of sun and enchanting beams of moon were fathomless to cherish.

I didn't want appetizing dishes of roasted almonds with a slurry of processed butter,
Bountiful fruits dangling from the tree and a plethora of succulent vegetable leaf would annihilate all indigestion.

I didn't want the luminous dial of imported watch wound tautly against my wrist,
The varied positions of sun god and changing patterns of light would give me an excellent idea of time.

I didn't want battalion of flowers to be laid for my reception,
An ambience bereft dust and debris evacuated of wild thorn would be the enough to express gratitude.

I didn't want fat bundles of currency with you dressed in ostentatious jewelry as my bride,
A rustically polished face with a cluster of inexpensive flower in your hair would pacify my heart,
As I would outrageously cry out in public and say 'I just want your perpetual love'.
