Mumbai Rebirth

The night mare of last year terrorist activity , costing 166 lives ,would have jolted any city to the core .but not Mumbai.
The city went to work , the next day ,as normally as it does bearing with it a heavy sorrow, a high anger and a vibrant disgust.
The transitoriness of life was made known by the violent horrendous attacks.

Men, who had went for work did not return home.
The Police officials , who were on guard fell a prey to the inhuman shooting.
The elites ,who were making merry , in high end hotels were eliminatedby the gunshots.
The train commuters succumbed to the killings.
Hospitals were under seige.
Expectant mothers, just born babes were at the mercy of the trerrorists.
Well, what a devastation!death could not be crueller.
The monstrous barbarism did not leave any corners at liberty.
Mumbai was bleeding on 26/11/2009
Mumbai was shocked on that day
Mumbai was weeping uncontrollably unable to bear the atrocity.

Yet , the shattered Mumbai came to terms.
The next day ,it gathered its torn edges,fastened them together, bound them with a thick adhesive of stoicism,made a brave entry into the world, as if nothing has happened.

The world was aghast.
Eyes fell out when people saw the telecast.
The bruise got healed in no time .
Mumbai was up on its heels on 27/Nov /2009.

Mumbai has given a beautiful lesson to the terrorists , that no crime , no ghastly act, no hideous irrelevance can buckle its spirit.
Long Live mumbai!!!
