This time it is a Friday. And it is my 13th post on this topic. Friday. The 13th. Crazy stuff is supposed to happen. Right? Right.
Come to think of it, what could be crazier than a smart, intelligent, beautiful girl saying "Yes" to marrying me within a fortnight of meeting me? Nothing I achieve in life is ever going to top that.
I was supposed to stop cribbing about V-day in 2017 itself! But I decided to let this tradition of crappy rhyme on V-day continue till I grow up. Which doesn't look like happening any time soon.
So, this year's edition...
After so many years of having done my sad V-day crib
Asking God, "Dude, what would it take? A piece of my rib?"
"If You, with all your omnipotence, cannot make it happen!
What chance do I stand! At least my wit, could You sharpen...
So that my future love life doesn't turn into a damp squib!!
I had been cribbing about being single since 2008
Before I met her, after an interminably long wait
Was it all preordained, or simply a lucky chance?
That has made me, to her mellifluous tunes, dance!
"Ha, if I danced, I wouldn't put on so much weight!"
She has put up with me now for three long years
Shared in my hopes, my dreams and my fears
She even laughs at my stupid jokes, so as to not hurt my ego
When I pretend to learn Spanish, she says "muy bien, amigo!"
I only wish she'd stop cribbing about my occasional beers!
"So, are you going to write your usual V-day post?"
She asked... while we shared a cheese chilli toast,
"What do you want me to say, my beautiful Pari?
that, of all my girlfriends past, real and imaginary,
You alone rule my heart, and I love you the most!"
I think next year, I will simply get her a V-day card
Because this stuff, for me, is getting too damn hard
You see, writing crappy rhyme often is not so easy,
especially the ones I write, which sound so cheesy,
Not everyone who rhymes can become a great bard!

PS: 13 years of V-day rhymes! Setting records only, I say!
