Once upon a time (it rained!!!) in Mumbai...

Grey skies screaming melancholy,
for some,
yet for some others this is a burst of delight;
the rains!

How many shades of grey can there be?
be it the tumultuous waves
and forbearing high tides,
or the thunderous clouds
without any respite,
Heavens pour with a magnificent fervor,
The Rain Gods show off their might...

Harried motorists feverishly jabbing their brakes
lest the splashing waters terrorize inside,
a cascade of vibrant umbrellas
dotted amid chaos, traffic snarls, swear-words and fist-fights
A pilgrim's progress..
reaching home from whither now?
this is some experience for sure,
Maketh us all Rain-smart, and pray, how??!
