Mumbai- The city of extremes


Saline summers and pouring wet rain
Although humid, mornings jostle in local train
Stones molded with Vintage bricks of shire
Yet the city unchained from world always on fire

Stocks and business plunge with dailies headlines
Where million slumbers shed under traffic lines
Big apple of India known for money valour
It sleeps when nights wake up by parties of glamour

Lights, camera and action defines an ordinary day
And prayers to film stars send gods in dismay
One roof stands high that cost a fortune
Uncounted people live under rigged steel dune

God of beginning to the legendary cricket master
Dances on the same beats, clamours the mumbaikar
Mix road side clothing, street food and night club
 City is bald and wear nothing- calls it a fashion hub
 
Islands of love came together to form the best
Bares to unimaginable pains, but she never rest
A new voyage it sojourns welcoming onshore alibi   
City of extremes, an ineffable Amchi Mumbai
