I know I drive you crazy,
You too, sometimes are fussy…
To me, you still are my li’l baby

You know we both are choosy,
Cheer up and take it easy..
I am sorry, I say frankly!!
So do mummy and daddy!

No matter how much we are busy,
We’ll always make time for you silly!

It’s Your 21st, You’re lucky..
We’ll make you fell special, do not worry!
Now do not frown and don’t be angry…
Get ready and let’s party!!

You naughty boy,
We Love You,
Be Happy!

Coz You know……..
YOU HAPPY , I HAPPY!!!!

Love,
Anshu

With the tantrums she threw,
Why really, nobody knew.
When all that she had,
She was about to lose.
But every single time,
Love came to her Rescue.

With all that she knew,
She never really grew.
With all that she said,
Darkness was all she was to choose.
But every single time,
Love came to her Rescue.

With all the dreams she flew,
She was always new.
But the danger was laid,
Unaware she was, of the blues.
But every single time,
Love came to her Rescue.

With the minds she blew,
She was a staring view.
With the price not paid,
She had her share of dues.
But every single time,
Love came to her Rescue.

With the love so true,
She took an advantage undue.
The words were left unsaid,
About which she had no Clue.
But every single time,
Love came to her Rescue.

Have a crazy bunch of people around me
Who care for me in every special way!!

Feels just yesterday, we started off together on the path,
Who knew, we would be as we are today!

I look back..
Years gone by, I now see in a flash!!
Moments together, are all captured in the snaps!!

“HAPPY YEARS”, I’ll name them,
Wonder how strangers become FRIENDS for life!

Guys!! It’s more than a promise,
Loads of memories I will cherish!!

No matter wherever we’ll be years from now,
You all will be the same crazy people for me, I vow!!

Ruled by the others she was till date,
Serene and innocent.
A damsel indeed;
Attempting to prevent apocalypse,
With a smile on her face.

But she was made to write her own fate
Growing in the shadow of the apocalypse,
Strong and fierce she became,
An independent queen with fire in her eyes.

Fairytale was her life.
Little did she know,
She was a monster in the making.
Did apocalypse change her?

Angel cum devil
As she thought of herself now,
She understood she was –
An angel
With invisible wings and robe
And
A devil
With invisible horns and tail

Take me to the land
Where you reside
Hold me by my hand
Where you’re by my side
I want to hide
In your arms
Inside

But do not worry for me at any cost..
My love! the land knows you, even when you are lost!

Lost if I am in this foreign land,
Lush green fields are the guide
Welcoming me with open hand

Again our paths crossed..
Hurray! the land knows you, even when you are lost!

Travel makes me feel free
Brings out in me an impish glee
About nothing you have to worry

Everywhere I have my foot-marks embossed..
And so, the land knows you, even when you are lost!

Pour down your thoughts;
Don’t vomit them out!
Let them flow out of you..
Then
Give them a direction..
You will witness a beautiful river flowing;
A river, full of thoughts!!

I’m on an adventure
Diving into my heart
Where I will find the treasure
But first I must find
The map, my inspiration
Perhaps I could look to my love
For it brings me elation
Teaching me the new trends
There is also my family
Who is always encouraging me
But they can make things chaotic
And my love can be quite quixotic

So I look to the sky
And to the trees around
Everything in nature I spy
where my passion is found
I can soar past all the stress
and just delve in the beauty of the outdoors
Although, even better is the sound
And the music that opens doors
Through which under indeas I am drowned
These unlikely pleasures awaken my heart
and give my inward journey a kickstart
Finally,
Hope and creativity
Peace and guidance
I find.
And that is where my heart belongs
Right in the middle of Nature and Sound

Dear Anshu,
2001,

Life is a box full of Surprises
Every moment is a Present
You gotto open it with a Smile
Embrace even the Fragile
Walk another Mile
Define your own Style
And Never settle in being just Fine

And You Have Come,
Never To Go Away!
And We Have Met,
To Walk Forever On The Endless Way..
A Promise, Never To Give Up On Each Other,
Come What May!

Whilst everyone is happy
That she got a perfect partner to spend her life with
The father is upset
Because he is going to take the reason for his living away from him

Whilst everyone is rejoicing
That she got a perfect partner to look after her
The father is worried
Because he is going to take the reason for his pride away from him

Whilst everyone is celebrating
That she got a perfect partner to share her joys and sorrows with
The father is envious
Because he is going to take the reason for his smile away from him
