Jab We Met
Papa
Papa, when I meet you in heaven,
I would be your sweet little girl,
whispering in your ears,
Papa, I have arrived!
To unfold a life, which would have
Been different, enriching & accomplished
With your presence!
But that was not to BE!!
*
Narrate long story
Destiny, which played an
Incredible role
Shaped the story, as your strings are in
Destiny’s hands,
Which makes you dance to its tune,
holding your threads!
*
Express Gratitude
People, places which shaped
my destiny made my story,
Having a special place in my heart,
Immortalised here!
*
First destination – Bhopal
Your memories forever distinct,
shaped my being I am today,
harnessed my energies, aims,
gave wings to my dreams!
*
Follow on destination- `New Delhi
You remain, my first love,
no place on earth like you,
you embraced me like no other,
Indebted, always, forever!
*
New Delhi, Now & Then
Quaint, lovely by-lanes of Delhi,
greenery & heritage of Lutyens
reduced to a place of protests,
molestations, theft, robbery, treachery!
*
Mumbai
My City of Dreams,
Which never let me sleep,
I touched name, fame on your shores,
fought life’s biggest battles here!
*
Brother
Life, never been same again,
beautiful, rosier, enriching
biggest joy, biggest support
I am nothing, without you!
*
Husband
Precious possession,
destiny brought us together,
conventionally, not made for each other,
eventually, the one for each other!
*
Tanya – Daughter
Your sparkling eyes changed,
my world, status enhanced from
daughter, sister, wife to mother
you are my legacy; you are my pride!
*
Friends – Flying saucer
They dropped like a flying saucers,
in my life’s pan,
since life has been spicy, sizzling,
restless, conventions-defying.
*
People who resurfaced
When we lost track,
we never thought, cross again
years & years rolled, no trace
revisited as ‘Aroma’ in my life!
*
Mom
You are on such a pedestal,
where hardly anyone can reach,
charming, friendly, charismatic,
special then, now & forever!
