Hi Jasbir, That is a true picture of Delhi, what a relief is the Delhi Metro in the chaotic polluted capital city! I was a guest to the benevolence of the Metro and the convenience and comfort still lingers in my mind. Very nicely worded poem. Good write. Keep it up. Do continue writing.

A joyous ride, The heart delights, A fertile ground for poetic flights. Dirt and squalor outside Our obnoxious civic pride. CP

A very fine word painting. In the landscapes of the mind, the poet always dares to dream. Kind regards, Sandra
