FIFTY YEARS!!


Fifty years!!

It’s been fifty long years,
So far luckily, there have been no tears,
It still feels like it's just been a day,
And I wish it forever stays this way.

There were a few misunderstandings, a bit of turbulence,
Things turned at times,
A bit hostile, sometimes even hoarse,
But that didn’t hamper our flare and romance.

I still remember the day when I had proposed,
And to decide, you had taken a moment too long,
I felt I was going to be rejected,
But I am fortunate that I was wrong.

I still remember our first occasion,
When our hearts were palpitating, full of tension,
We were so nervous, so excited that night,
As we hoped everything will go on allright.

We were sitting beside a fire,
With our bodies burning with desire,
The music system was playing such a romantic song,
As we had hoped that night to last slightly long.

So many memories I still cherish,
Be it our first child,
Or to see his career flourish,
Those moments are still fresh in my mind.

It’s been fifty long years,
So far luckily, there have been no tears,
It still feels like it's just been a day,
And I wish it forever stays this way.

Even today as I gaze into your starlit eyes,
I feel mesmerized,
Even today as I hear your sweet voice,
I feel magnetized.

As I look at your slightly wrinkled face, I smile,
It’s been a remarkable race, Of many a mile
I look at your aged yet smooth skin,
And realize what a journey it has been.

It’s been fifty long years,
So far luckily, there have been no tears,
It still feels like it's just been a day,
And I wish it forever stays this way…


Fifty years...??!!...that's slighly far-fetched you might think....but surely at the back of your mind, you must be wishing that you get an opportunity to celebrate fifty years with the person you love the most...

To you , my mother!! Today I really want to say something, To you, my mother, my creator. Thank You, for everything you've done, I need you, I really do, Please stay by my side forever.... I remember a day of the past, When you held my little finger, Took me to school the very first day. I was crying, terribly upset, Coz i didn't want to stay away from you. I remember how i used to cry, When every morning you went to the dispensary. I needed you then, i need you even now. I need your guidance, your advice. I need your backing, your support. Today I really want to say something, To you, my mother, my creator, Over the past few years, You've become my guide, my mentor, I need you, i really do, Please stay by my side forever.... I am indeed very lucky, To have a mother as sweet as you. I am indeed very lucky, To have someone who cares for me, Who appreciates my achievements with glee, Yet equally stern when i am wrong. You have a heart of gold, my mother, Please stay by my sid

You have enriched my life!! In an era where happy marriages are an illusion, In you I see love so untainted, so true, It is pleasantly surprising and gladdening, And I feel so lucky to spend my life with you, The twinkle in your eyes; the caring look on your face, I see, as I open my eyes every morning, I feel your soft hands gently stroking my forehead, The moment is beyond doubt, refreshing, I feel excited while coming back from work, Knowing someone’s eagerly waiting for me, And as we sit and share the day’s happenings, All my worries vanish; I feel happy and free, Sweetheart, let me hold you for a moment, And let all the memories flow, From the first time we met, the first time we kissed, To the birth of our children, and seeing them grow, The times spent with you have been priceless, And I can’t imagine living even a day without you, Dear, your smile mesmerizes me even now, I can spend my whole life merely gazing at you. I feel like praising you all the time, For you are a

LOVE:: A JOURNEY!!

[care for your loved ones, for u may not be with them the next moment] Love:: a journey!! What is love, a waste of time, Thought so, when i was nine. Stupid romantic movies i saw, that had many a flaw. But then, aged twelve i saw, a beautiful maiden, so elegant and tall, so beautiful, so much like a doll. That made me wonder, it made me ponder, Am i in love? I was eighteen ,and when dad would speak, all i felt, was to shout and shriek, for, a stern military voice he had i thought, being in love, is it so bad? Running, i went to my mother , but she didn't even bother. no one cared, no one listened, Drenched in pain, Tried to convince them what love is, But in vain, yet again... Years had passed, i had turned twenty five, last month, and about to take a vow, the same girl that she had been, since, at the age of twelve, i had seen, was now my bride-to-be.. Sometimes in life, u burn, but destiny always takes a nice turn, that makes life so full of fun. smitten by her, now about to mar
