Urvi's Scribbling

Struck by a lightening, Frozen by the light, A light that showed her truth, in the bewildered dark night. That night it burned, the feathers of a flying bird, Left it alone in her world, with no choice but to wait unheard, Her wound got reverse healing, and the pain made her numb, She had to wait patiently sealing, a bitter truth, that broke her into crumb. She had feared the journey, but headed bravely, To make a fiction turn truth; Ohh she failed badly, and couldn't fulfil sadly, The dream she saw in her youth. The journey of despair seems so long, Though useless, she aims to get along; And reach the destination to relish others celebrate, Coz achievement is with whom, she never had a date!

As a child I was always excited to visit Town (the southern part of Mumbai as they say) for every other vacation. This is the place my mother's parents stayed. I was mesmerized by the Gothic style buildings and the tall ceiling rooms. There are more heritage buildings here, than any other part of the country. So I decided to take M on the "Colaba Circuit" (I like to call it that way!) If you went on a vacation to some foreign country what would you like to see?... All the beautiful architechure, museum, restaurants, the market places and other sceneries.. right? I am sure very few of us have seen this part of their very own place, Mumbai.
