Rahim Khar- The Magician

                                                                                
I know a magician named Rahim Khar;                          
he moved vale in speed and fast,
today a trick or tricks to display in Ananthnag,
day after his troupe would land in Aishmuqam,
a drum and a monkey in leash and fold,
people from far and near would watch his show,
he would produce a pair of pigeons in tow;
or countless flowers of size and shape in baskets in row,
of late, he changed his style and show,
he styled a pandit and panditani of a fair Muslim pair,
displayed them performing various pandit rituals;
countless Muslims born in the 90s assembled in large numbers to watch the show,
to watch a Raza Bai in attire and glow,
followed by a pandit in regal dress in tow,
Muslim youngsters thronged in numbers in row,
to watch the pandit in caricatures and magic show!
