MUMBAI
A poem by - Sakshi Valanjoo - XB
India’s
financial capital,
where tourists settle.
It
gives bread and butter,
to every businessman and beggar.
Small
city but big fame,
from Mumbadevi got its name.
City
having highest population
ranks first in the nation.
World’s
fifth largest city,
everyday, in every house, there’s tea.
Situated
on Maharashtra’s west coast,
famous for chicken roast.
Rule
of British in 18th century,
made situations worse and teary.
19thcenturysaw financial progress,
along
with some religious mess.
20th century, stress on education,
thereafter Mumbai’s incarnation.
Built
on strength and patience,
nothing mere coincidence.
Sweat,
toil and perseverance,
rewards based on performance.
21st
century, never challenge the city,
for it will have no pity.
It
won’t have any mercy,
just honest labour and courtesy.
People
come to Mumbai with a dream,
some dream to come.
City
of joy and irony,
employment and jobs for many.
Bollywood is in everyone’s muster.
Plays,
music, or song,
new talent searches, forgives if wrong.
From
bhel to ice-cream sold in a stall,
caters to one and all.
This
city lies close to my heart,
as it has shaped my career chart.
