25 Years Of Togetherness

This day…thinking of that year
So far its seems now and yet so near
Two strangers coming together and becoming so dear
Riding through rough times to finally celebrate with cheer

In a marriage which was not love; but arrange
Coming from backgrounds so strange
It’s heartening to see you both change
So much you talk and still have tons to exchange

Knowingly or not, you both have changed
Dad helping with chores to help Mom who was drained
Or Mom agreeing to things to ensure both of you gained
Both working tirelessly to ensure relation remains unstrained

Your non-stop chats that wake us in the morning
With laughter and cups of tea to keep you warming
You don’t realise how much we keep longing
To see you immersed in each other without warning

So many dreams realised and many more to go
The love that is visible and the one you choose not to show
Wanted to tell you that we all know
The love that you have will continue to grow

All these years, it has been worth the struggle
You did so much and continue to juggle
May your love continue to multiply and double
While you continue to be enveloped in love’s bubble
