I wrote the following lines soon after we got married. Ronku had to go back to unit and I was in Ghy in a bad state. Certain things kept cheering me up... one of them were some memories...
-21st July’06
Two little birdies…
Twittered & chirruped in their homes,
Oblivious to each other’s existence,
Both aspired to soar high and distant.
One fine day, with the new born wings,
They set out to fly…
As they passed each other,
One thought the other looked familiar…
So it went ahead & said a warm hello,
And the other smiled n said a friendly hi.
And then began the journey
Of the two little birdie…
During their flights they met again,
As they exchanged pleasantries,
They realized they could be friends,
And decided to meet again during their quests.
Next time they shared their dreams & aspirations,
As they fluttered their way in a clear blue sky,
Or hovered around in dark despair…
Then they parted, with a promise to meet soon after.
Their journeys went on for long…
The young Birds were now the best of friends…
Then one day began the anxiety and longing…
To share the same path to their dreams.
But they kept silent,
As they moved on in ambivalence…
Until a day, one spoke out of the hush,
And the other turned pink with blush…
And so began their ‘journey together’…
To merge and emerge their dreams,
They know, they have a long way to go…
But they don’t care as they have each other.
