O My Ladies

O my ladies'

You've grown

Taller than me...

I still remember

Vividly, the day

I started

Breaking down

The tough stones

With all my might

And loosened out

The tough hard soil

Then gently smoothened

The rows...

One by one and then

Dropped the seeds of hope...

And you sprouted

With all your energy,

Just sunshine and water...

And you bore such healthy fruits

Four months have passed since

And never once

I sneaked or flirted

With any other 'Lady' of the town...

But now I see the

Bunch of jealous

Chillies beside you,

Sheepishly staring at your might and height.

They can never compete with you however

'Cause you are soft

And gently 'vitaminous'

Chillies laugh when my tears roll down.

I never loved you ladies

So much before, but you've made

A safe place in my heart,

Memories shall make me ever smile!
