Prompt idea by Savageness06

In the city of dreams a lifeline so vast
Mumbai local train comes so fast.
Through the busy stations and bustling  streets,
There's a journey where countless ends meet.

From the early mornings rush to evenings call,
Mumbai local trains for all.
Cute acessories to fruit and vegetable aunties to sellers of sweet candies,
A train where the strangers become buddies.

Helpful people along the way, cherish the journey.
Once you get a seat here be tension free,
Sometimes, what's more fun then travelling without a ticket?
Don't be shy, peep into the passengers phone and enjoy the match of cricket.

Introverts speak up here people don't bite,
Share your stories and dreams in a place where kind people unite.
Ohh, look look an argument looks so heated,
Here's a free entertainment for all those seated.

Please help the beggers along the way,
Your kind help makes their day.
Don't forget to eat station's food along,
Or sing the bhakti song.

You see those people hanging along the doors,
No, they won't fall. It's everyday routine for mumbaikers to hang,
What else can we do? People here travel in crores,
No, they aren't cussing each other, its a friendly slang.

Travelling is exhausting in Mumbai,
Especially in local trains. Situation is do or die.
Filled with chaos and rush this city,
Local trains are the only thing that brings travel unity.
