My Birthday !

This day a few years back,

When i was even less than half of what i am infact,

When this day meant a lot to be,

And today also i have all those memories intact.

The excitement prevailed for days before,

What should i expect, created a chaos,

When the only confusion was what i wore,

And my sandals did not match oh god..

I invited her for my birthday party and cake,

And she preserved some gifts for this date,

I guessed what's in there with a tremulous smile,

Noiselessly prayed it's not something I hate.

Years are gone and days went,

We are grown ups and only a little zeal left,

We wish could go back and be child again,

And relive these moments as earlier felt.
