It was a month of September, when I landed in Mumbai.
Clouds were bubbling in the sky
painting the sky of Mumbai
creating shapes-
Here white clouds preferred the shape of INDIA
My favourite place in Mumbai -
cuffe parade at the other end of the backbay
almost touching the clouds
Vidhan Bhavan popping from the back of INOX
It stands alone amidst the rectangular Boxes
Clouds showering silver on the Arabian Sea while
Mantralya keeping an eye
A chimp planting a kiss on the forhead of a lovely lass
Vidhan Bhawan shining with the silver
clouds look full from the thirtieth floor
The mighty Mantralya boasts its presence
Vidhan Bhavan surrounded by tall boxes
It is a time of hightide, the Backbay is full with water
the fishermen are back with their catch so it seems very calm as the boats are lying idle
There was a time when I used to sit for hours in the window of a house at fifth floor in Cuffe Castle,
spending hours watching these boats going to sea for their catch, and this time I spent hours looking at the backwater and my favourite place fifth floor of Cuffe Castle
I cherish those memories
