My Serendipity!!!

There I stood nonchalantly in the doorway…
The cool breeze from the back yard…
Told me what time it was of the day…

I could listen to the chirps of young ladies…
As they whiff pass apathetic me…
I stand there like a lone cactus’ in the wadies…

All are busy as it’s my wedding…
But I sit aside thinking about the…
Wonderful life I am about to be Heading…

Hustle hustle rustle rustle….
I listen to the people passing by…
My face epitomized my internal scuffle…

In this classic scene of mix up and bluster…
I hear a voice that’s soothing as music to me…
I stand for her with all the courage I muster…

My ill fated life has one prized possession…
An opulent beauty at body and heart…
That’s my bride, busy! like a kid in recession…

She embarked into my life, like peace in a shrine…
Owned my pains, and killed my pangs…
I now live this life with agony down the drain…

My eyes neither no pain nor they no any color…
Yes!!! I am blind, but I have nothing I fear…
I know I can fight any battle with her valor…

I can’t repress the day when I lost my sight…
But if I have another life, I know it would be with her…
Coz I know I can see the world with she by my side…

The only fear of loosing her still intimidates me…
When I ask myself what she found in me…
The answer I get is not “because Love is blind” it is…
Simply because love enables one to see things others fail to see…
