tagged...

once i was tagged to write about the city i call home... well currently i live in Bombay or Mumbai as it is now called... is it home? not yet... but probably will be... so i felt...let me honour the tag and actually write about it.. but i don't want to take anyone on a tour of Bombay..so here is an impression of the city...

never are you alone in the crowd; dust, dirt, filth and smoke
the vibrant, palpable, energy; a spirit that never broke
the city of the opposites; the city of maximums and extremes
of excesses and nothings; of laughter and shattering screams
the brazen, untamed, unabashed, beauty for ever and ever
secrets always hidden deep; an open book? no... not... never

WOW!

These are ..these are wonderful!

half an earth wanted
half a sky touched
half a reality i lived
half a dream i clutched


This is the best:

half of you and a half of me
half i hide and half you see


Loved it so much, planning to write a song!

Cheers!
