If I were her twin
From a single womb,
to grow every day together,
to be all the ages with you
troubling every now and then.
Like a mirror in front,
When all the 'I' and 'You' are 'Ours'
Doubling the joys and dividing the blues,
My sister you are, indeed the bestie.
Twenty fingers to tickle,
four arms to hug tight,
twin bodies with a single soul,
we will have 'us'.
To whisper or blabber out,
to spill the beans, to argue,
you are never alone,because
just another 'you' are here.
Together, to dream for the stars,
make footprints and pass milestones
specially crafted in His hands,
as a lively shadows,unique and gifted.
I wish, If I were your 'Twin'...

PS : Dedicated to my best friend Ammu who has been playing the roles of sister and brother, guide, critic and at other times like a clown to make me laugh when I am mood off. We had dreamed several times that if we were twins, and when I got the prompt "If I were..", I have no doubt about what to choose.:) I am lucky, I have the world's best "friend".
may this friendship last forever..."Like a mirror in front, / When all the 'I' and 'You' are 'Ours'"..the lines say all :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a nice trubute to your friend, Sruthi. What fun it would be to be twins with another person; but maybe, on second thought, having such a good friend is even better? Nice to see you at Poetry Jam!
ReplyDeleteThis is a great poem to your friend. Yours is the best kind of friendship.
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful tribute to a friend. A friend in childhood and I often played that we were twins. There seems something special in that bond between twins.
