Wanna know

When she was exclusively mine!

 
As I am asked to speak, a few words for my sister,
Am wondering how to bring all these 40 years together!

So, thought and decided to talk of the time-
A period in my life, when she was exclusively mine!

She came in my life, not when she was born,
but after staying, initial few years, with our grandmom!

At first I was struck, to hear her call my mom as mummy,
But eventually, it sank in as she became the best company!



While our siblings went to others, we were in the same school,
Those KV memories, treasured in our hearts, are simply wonderful!

Sharing icecreams in the Army truck, money calculations in Tempu,
Joining at lunchtime after finishing her own food!

Unforgettable is her big smile on the chubby face,
Looking back, anytime anywhere in the school if I trace!

She was my pride, support, and confidence,
The bold one, who will standby in any consequence!

Then it all ended one day, no one to blame,
As the twins became ‘partners’ in a carom game!

The game ended, but not their partnership.
And I sadly felt, here comes my lonely hardship!  



Being with her, she did not need anyone or anything,
But in showering her love & affection, she was still the king!

Her support was multifold, and care was bountiful,
Inseparable even in my dreams, with her she was beautiful!

Therefore, my heartfelt wishes are not for one, but both of them,
Enjoy the moment, as in the forties, the fun of life has again begun!
