Mumbai My Muse, My Love, My Addiction!


I am Mumbai
The city of dreams
The city that never sleeps
I have my own culture
I have formed my own tradition
I am Mumbai the city of dreams

People dwell on me
Here they thrive
Here they shine
Here they dare to dream
I am Mumbai the city of dreams

From street vendors
To street food
From murmuring traffic to twinkling cars
From multi-millionaires to movie stars.
I have it all
I am Mumbai the city of dreams


Where Crowded trains are almost on time,
Spirit of its passengers always sublime
Here changes happen overnight
City of unusual weather,
I am Mumbai the city of dreams


From Multi-lingual to multi-religious,
I wouldn’t be wrong; if I say,
It’s a city where country comes together,
Mumbai the city of dreams


Every city has its ups and downs and she is no different.
She gives me an identity and makes me proud.

City where I was born,
The city were I want to depart

My city, My Mumbai!
My Muse, My Love, My Addiction!

The whooshing sound!

It's the whooshing sound effect! Every four weeks I have been visiting my doctor for regular check ups and every time the doctor takes his fetal heart beat machine I lie in excitement as each time we hear the fetal heart beat.

First time we heard the fetal heart beat it sounded more like a fast race car sound with its windows down effect. On our second visit the heart beat of the baby sounded more like a fast express train passing by in speed. On our third visit baby's heart beat sounded more like a dogs bark. Oops I said that to my doc and he laughed his head out saying that's the first one he has ever heard.

Cut to our famous Bollywood Hindi movies where the songs related to beating of the heart sounds like Dhak Dhak! And all these years I was in the illusion that the heart for sure may sound like dhak dhak when it beats and thus reminded me of Madhuri clad in yellow saree and the all time perfect timing of the rains that drenched her saree as she sang the famous Dhak Dhak song!

The Tummy Tickle

The Tummy Tickle

You know how I feel
It’s like butterflies fluttering its wings
It’s a thousand feeling of happiness
When you tickle my tummy
Oh! Girl I feel good

You know how I feel
When after a long day I sleep weary or after a meal
And you start kicking
It makes me smile making all those weariness vanish
Like a touch of magic wand
Oh! Girl I feel good

You know how I feel
It’s a new dawn
A new day
It’s a new life inside me
Oh! Girl I feel good

You know how I feel
Like you can listen to me
Get a glimpse of me
The sun shining high
The breeze blowing my hair
Oh! Girl I feel good
And you make me feel good!

The feeling of Life

A feeling of a new life
A feeling of change
A feeling when I saw you inside me moving your hands and feet
Doing somersaults and making faces, gave me tears
A feeling I feel everyday for you
That of love, love and only love
You grow inside me and take all that you need to grow
Strong, healthy and to cope when you come to our world
I feel my mood change, my body change and tired sometimes
I feel the way you make me feel
Someday in tears, in joy, in peace, in happiness or a total freak sometimes
It’s the feeling of being a mother to you my little one
Is the only feeling I can’t express
Coz its you I will feel for rest of my life
