A Time Matched By No Other

A very happy birthday to you,
My dear.
Another year older, the more you are wiser,
Don’t worry, dreams are about to come true, there’s no place for fear.

May you get everything you desire, And the dangerous pandemic leaves you unaffected.
Your close ones remain safe, by your side,
And the weight of the test of times is successfully hefted.

We don’t talk as much as we used to, this thought makes me shudder,
But I know you’ll always be my favourite sister and I’ll be your best brother.
Hope this year will bring lots of joy and happiness in your life,
A time matched by no other.

I Am Not Pleased

The virus is spreading fast,
The pandemic has hit its peak.
The exams got cancelled,
When they were away just a week.

It feels like all the hard work,
Went in vain.
But it is also true,
That not marks but knowledge is supposed to be gained.

Nothing much productive to do,
Just lying all day in the room,
Watching and playing some cricket,
Be it morning, evening or afternoon.

Thinking of taking up some new activities,
To enhance my personality.
But the energy level is low,
And I don’t know why!

Everything around feels to have slowed down,
Cause there is a lot of free time.
Just reading Christie and some other good writers,
Be it fantasy, fiction or crime.

Also listening to a lot of music,
Which seemed impossible just three days ago.
Now I can do whatever I want to,
And got a contended face to show.

The duration of every single day,
Suddenly feels to have increased.
It’s kind of confusing but still,
I won’t say, “I am not pleased.”
