Mumbai chills

There is a nip in the air
And the dawn is sluggish.
The day rushes through in quicktime
And dreamtime gets a boost.
In Mumbai, winter is celebrated
When the sweat stops pouring
And the temperature settles at 18Celsius
The woollies are out
For a day or two
And soon it is time
For summer.

  1. I love this -- Mumbai chills --- for two whole days while it is cold and wet and rainy where I live 9 months out of the year,,,lets divide this up -- I take some sunny days and you can have the rainy days.

  2. I'm packing my bags. Be there as fast as I can. Unless you want to take some of my snow? We've got about six inches left after the last melt.

  10. While we in Delhi are sick of the winter layers, those in warmer parts love to wear them even if only for a day or two! You said it: winter starts in such places when sweat stops pouring :D

And now here in NY, it's at freezing point!! And we are all wrapped in layers and layers!! Phhheewww.. what a contrast!! Two of my MOST fav. cities... so similar, and yet so different!

    Have a lovely winter, my friend!
