A Fitting Tribute!

Here came a lovely poem(s) totally unexpected, fittingly on a special day. May the stars shine on the star-birthday of a beautiful soul in bangalore! And thanks 'A', I donno if I would have been able to express my feelings in a better way! What can I say? I am dumbstruck! Thanks a lot :)

Friends
We met upon the Internet,
A friendship electronic,
Expressed alone in words and thoughts,
Inevitably platonic.

We live too far apart for us
To mingle in the flesh,
But much more close than family,
Our hearts and feelings mesh.

Rajagopal is a friend from the blog
And in yahoo to chat we log.
We have our own sweet home within
Our precious cyberspace.


Rajagopal &Janani
It's amazing how he feels when he hears her voice,
How his heart pounds when she talks.
He listens to her and thinks: My God! How lovely!
And everything around him bursts into bloom.

He feels as though she mus be his,
Not as a possession but a goal,
Something almost unimaginable:
The free devotion of another soul.

His mood is like a cloudy noon
Waiting for the sun,
Or like a sailing ship that can't
Set sail without the tide.
He fidgets in his emptiness,
Not knowing where to run;
Yet when he hears her he can't explain
What's going on inside.

Months have passed since they became close friends.
Every day he finds He's thinking of her,
Through the phone messages are sent.
They share all their thoughts and feelings:
He cannot wait to tell her of his day,
And gives her the gist of all his dealings.

The day is not far off
When they would be together,
Rejoicing in happiness
And live happily ever after.


Birthday Wishes
Wish you a happy birthday, dearest friend.
We can be just closest friends.
There is no passion greater than the one
That touches not the body but the heart.

I'm sorry I can't be with you today,
When you should rule by virtue of your birth.
Please accept this tribute of mere words,
Best substitute for a birthday gift.

Wish you long years to come,
Good tidings sent to you,
From all of us here,
With heartfelt warmth,hugs and cheer.


Happy Birthday Janani
