Come Soon, Monsoon

My most favorite season of the year seems to be angry with Mumbai. A couple of showers apart, the Rain God has turned its back on the city.

Of course any Mumbaikar worth his or her salt will agree that it's not the best of seasons in the metro - what with the water-clogged streets, dirty roads and ever-growing line of vehicles stuck in the traffic. But monsoon also brings with it beautiful overcast evenings and smell of wet earth.

The trees are alive with their newfound green tinge. I hope monsoon will keep its promise of returning year after year. Monsoon, come soon. :-)
