The poem 'In the Bazaars of Hyderabad’ has been infused (put in) with an abundance of sensory experience. Sensory experience refers to how a poem or text makes the reader almost see, smell, hear, feel the texture and taste various elements mentioned in the poem.  

This poem has auditory (hearing), tactile (touch), visual (seeing), gustatory (taste) and olfactory (smell) imagery.

Some examples of auditory imagery are:

What do you call, O ye pedlars?

What do you cry,O ye fruitmen?

What do you play, O musicians?

What do you chant, O magicians?

In each of these cases, the poet seems to be giving a running commentary. She lists out  what these people are selling, playing or chanting. The reader can almost hear the voices in the bazaar, the sound of the musical instruments playing and also the chants uttered by the magicians.

Examples of visual imagery are:

Turbans of crimson and silver,

Tunics of purple brocade,

Mirrors with panels of amber,

Daggers with handles of jade.

Saffron and lentil and rice.

Sandalwood, henna, and spice.

Bells for the feet of blue pigeons

With tassels of azure and red

There is a lot of play with colours like crimson, silver, purple, azure and red. Similarly, grocery items like saffron (orange), lentil (brownish), rice (white), sandalwood (beige), henna (dark green) and spice (multicoloured), are listed to bring out a variety of colours. The poem also provides the reader with a list of products that are on display, like turbans, mirrors, daggers, bells, spices, food items and so on. This too adds colour and variety to the picture of the bazaar.

Also, mirrors cause reflections, which again is a visual phenomenon. Further, amber, jade and brocade come under both visual and tactile imagery, because these materials have a particular feel to them.  

The sight of tiny bells on pigeons' feet is charming, while bells also have a sound to them. So, the bells come under both visual and auditory imagery.
