What Has Happened To This City

What has happened to this city 
Why has it changed. 

Deserted roads
Waterfall deserted 
Deserted malls, theater too
What happened to this city 
Why has changed. 

Blossom parks and  coasts 
Crushed by proudy feet are deserted 
Who poured the poison in peace 
What happened to this city 
Why has changed. 

Kids, youths and heavy traffic 
Who broke the silence of the city 
Living but silence 
What happened to this city 
Why has changed. 

Sake hands, hugs and kisses 
Had bade to good bye the city
Who spreading fear in heart of Sweety(lover).
What happened  to this city 
Why has it changed. 

Smile behind mask 
Happiness too behind mask 
And both behind sorrow with pain
What happened to this city 
Why has it changed. 

Athiti Devon bhavo (guest as god)
Welcome written at main doors
Why should I forget
What happened to this city 
Why has it changed.

It's just a life's lesson, Arjun, not to take so much out of life and, to take a look what is beyond the busy city, this is the true life . . . : )
