I was trying to come up with a Music-based video as a 'Wedding Present' for Mr. Shyam Jagannathan & Ms. Pooja Kulseja... by scourging through their Facebook pages - but it did not turn out quite all right - so I ended up never publishing it. In the meanwhile this 'poetry' was a by-product of that effort...
Once there was an young man from the land of wooden sandals,
An audiophile, a racket-head, with photographic angles!
Well, one fine day as he smashed away some racket-splitting serves,
He felt as if some divine whiff was soothing all his nerves.
He looked about in sudden doubt for the source of all the breeze
That smashed about his cerebrum and knocked him off his knees.
It took him quite a bit of time to find out all the answers
As to why the hell he felt as if a troupe of ballet dancers
Were tiptoing round in choreograph in a world of rainbow beams,
When Lo Behold, in vibes of gold stood the acme of his dreams!
This shepherdess of resources of the anthropoidal kind,
This archangel of Jubbulgarh had robbed his senses blind.
At once to him twas clear as sand that's melted in the forge
That life without the divine dame would be empty as a gorge
That cuts within the mountains high to darkened depths descend.
And just like that his broken heart no adhesive would mend.
So all at once he made his mind to take the supreme leap
In spite of all the friendly jibes of lions now turned sheep
Who sadly shook their hen-pecked heads saying "Welcome to the club!"
And those staunch few who held out still said "one more bites the grub!"
So, at last we come to the fateful day when the registrations are tied,
And in the midst of the gathered glitz, the knot is finally signed.
All we can say is "have a great day" and "a roller coaster ride
Of a life full of adventures!" Be happy, Groom & Bride!
