Not same The last 3 days . A relative , passing away Never whom I met A pall of gloom, yet .
Today Husband would be back from tour
A day before Stuck he was in the heavy downpour And flooded Mumbai roads . My heart sank, Reminded of the deluge Year 2005, July 26th And Stuck he was in a similar situation Residents of Mumbai, then we were.
A Day before He had a long day ahead Asked the driver to leave Only to return by evening .
The driver with no return route And The hotel a few Kms away Not a single Ola Uber Around the corner Added to the bother.
A good 40 minutes walk In waist high water Followed by a bus ride Hotel ,he managed to reach . And hopefully , The Mumbaikars to their homes Who waded along Helping each other in the murky waters.
Yes 'The SPIRIT Of MUMBAI' Not to be missed Come Rains or Terrorists Mumbaikars with help , do outreach.
Had been feeling low in the last few days partly due to the weather and happenings, and did not write much. Things are fine today and so a quick write , inspired again by my favourite Place , and so the title , ' The Spirit Of Mumbai'. In spite of adversities the people there are never let down.
