'Strangers' We Were

Strangers we were,

Having different goals in life,

Working in the same company

Trying, our professional career to thrive.

We were like a bunch of delf,

One fine day, we were introduced,

Not by any person or friend

But by fate itself.

There was this one guy, soon to get noticed,

As the 'Angry bird' he is, of high calibre

Not to mention, the smartest as well

In all, he is a tough time for any manager.

But I think, now the manager can rest,

As our angry bird is moving to the United States,

One more thing that I know is- he is a 'Lover'

But he reveals never, this fact to others.

Then came another, a movie maniac

But, only Hollywood matches the expectations,

He is nowhere near being classic or romantic

But a dude, and as a friend he is fantastic.

A regular guy at first, soon became our encyclopedia,

He looks like Hulk, and is a fan of Captain America,

Well he is a writer too, writing only crime stories

The captain of the pack, he follows routine even to watch movies.

Then arrived the queen, About her much I can't explain,

She mostly sits in her cabin, where allowed only is the captain,

Sometimes, she allows the 'Angry bird' to get in and entertain

Poise, full of grace, she is an elegant Bramhin.

A dedicated employee, a reliable associate of the firm she is, 

Working every day for ten hours clean, even more sometimes,

Twelve months a year, she is on diet,

Yet, she can floor you, with only one sight.

After the queen, joined us a girl, from the far outskirts

Innocent, honest, she is still like a kid

Who understands nothing of corporate politics.

Though in the day time, she is a companion great

It is for her, that we can't go out in the evenings late

Whenever such a plan I do propose, 

The captain rules it out, and jokes-

'Bro you are forgetting, she has to go to different state'

And such a darling she is, she never gets angry or distressed

But only replies innocently - 'No, I live in this same state'.

Then there is one girl, Who joined us from the north

Vivacious, playful, smart, around her she creates a mirth

Expert in all the 'Girly arts', she is a sweetheart

Though she won't join us regular, having her own herd.

Spending time with her is amusing, yet dangerous

Without you realising, she can pull out all your secrets,

Still, I'm very fond of her, and her always I do praise

As a minute or two with her can kill all of your stress.

Creating her own aura, she is the damsel, who at will

Can put you in and pull you out from any distress.

We meet every day, only in office hours

Sitting in the queen's abode, letting all tensions to vapour

We plan the trips, on which we are yet to go

On them, when will we go? That none of us know.

It's been such little time that each-other we do know

Yet the time spent together, helped the bond to grow

But as the paths are parting again, after a few years from now

Where will we be? It's difficult to know.

While I pen my thoughts, though not a big deal,

It's difficult to explain, the attachment I feel

Far from home, in an unknown city

I can say, they have become my family.
