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!!

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 ...

DRAVID: THE UNSUNG HERO!!

Dravid: The unsung hero!! An epitome of perseverance was he, A man of resolve; like a wall he stood, Weathering every belligerent storm with ease, Every single time, without an interlude, An epitome of ethics, an ideal sportsman was he, He made us believe, cricket’s still a gentleman’s game, For rarely he shouted, cursed or resorted to unfair means, Never did we see him bring our country’s reputation to shame, An epitome of selflessness was he, A man who would have walked on fire for his team, He did everything he was asked to do; and more, He would die saving someone else’s life, it does seem, An epitome of humility, a true altruist was he, For never in his life was he seen flaunting his records, Preferring instead to be a shadow, an unsung hero, A man who served; without expecting rewards, An epitome of loyalty was he, Like a mother loves her child since birth, Every step he took was in the interest of the country, Yet who never r...
