mumbai

Smell of newness is lingering in my breath


At the dawn all connote streets are still clumsy

My dreams are dancing for shiny new rays of sun

Here everyone is running and stations are always bursting

Trains always run with extra load

Girls manage here there stilettos on rough road

Everyone always glance at their watch

Everyone have train, bus or cab to catch

But now everyone is in deep sleep after so much dash

Smoke of hot tea is all over my face

Smile and tears and strength this city gave me

Here streets are always jam with traffic or rain

All lanes wear their wits of state with fashion and hearts full of pain

Slowly whole city is waking up with big yawn

Peace in the air is disappearing with a moan

All hold it inside dreams some painful reminiscences

And it still runs with same spirit and same means.
