How many years has it been? 23 today,
“Amazing” “Awesome” ”Oh my gosh”, the Americans would say,
People may feel the years went by like a breeze,
Practically speaking, they don’t pass with ease.
You’ve enjoyed the ups and borne with the downs,
And during times sad, been each other’s clowns.
No matrimonial site can find such a perfect match, ever,
No Nazi experiment could create kids so clever ;)
In all these years, not once has the romance dimmed,
Voices have been raised, but love has only brimmed,
Early in this journey, entered yours truly,
Root of nine years later came along a tyrant, unruly,
Seriously though, my brother and I are truly blessed,
At this point, my rhyme shall not be messed,
Rhymes are all I can gift, till I earn and pay my own bill,
Yours forever, your unspoilt, young Nikhil.
P.S: if you haven’t observed already, the first letters from
every line , when read downwards form a phrase .
i could totally relate to it..my parent's 23rd anniversary was a few days ago..and loved ur style and creativity! "happy anniversary" written downwards! :)
