HAPPY 60TH DEAREST SUMA !!
🎉

-

Quiet in strength, yet sharp in mind,
As brilliant an intellect is hard to find!
Stoic and steady, calm and wise,
With kindness shining in your eyes.

You give your all, you never boast,
To your family, you give the most.
A loving, inspiring dad, a loyal devoted spouse,
The gentle but Strong rock within your house!

So here’s to you on your special day,
With love and warmth we proudly say:
Happy Birthday, Sujit- may joy overflow,
For the quiet strength we’re blessed to know!!

Anu, an epitome of strong, stoic grace,
With a smile that lights her lovely face!
No problem too big, marches along
To her own beat, to her own song.

Not for her, trappings of gold or make-up glow,
Content with life, she smiles through any low;
A devoted wife, a mother sans compare,
A fitness freak, ever ready to take on a dare!

Now on the cusp of a new role to fill,
A mother-in-law, with strength and will.
May your journey be rich, your spirit bright,
Wishing you loads of love, laughter and light!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY DEAREST ANU!!

Here I go again
Searching your texts
For a sign
A word, a phrase, a question
Anything that gives me
A glimmer of hope
That I matter
My presence matters
That my presence and my absence
Both make the tiniest difference
To you

When love asks
us to dim our light
Tells us that
it appears too bright;
Is it time for us to shrink
Or
Is it time to turn from the brink
Or
Is it time for us to let it go
Allowing us to be us again
Unapologetically us
Just us

A month of
special days and dates
and special promises
Waiting to be celebrated !!

-

A gentle promise
Of better understanding
Of lesser misunderstanding
Of more forgiveness of flaws,
Of lesser intolerance of faults
A gentle promise
Of a better place
To be

-

Want to hear the timbre of your voice,
Saying those magic words, by choice!!
There are nights when I
Want to reach for your presence,
To hear you say you miss my presence !

-

Where there is hurt
Can anger be far behind?

Anger at fate, for its betrayal
Anger at self, for being loyal,
Anger at you, for the devastation,
Anger at me, for the capitulation!

But as the fire settled into embers
And life saved me from annihilation,
I learnt to thank you for the memories
Learnt to live life sans expectation!

Still learning, still struggling...
Still wondering, still living ...

-

I would lead you to happiness
