XL Parting Poem

Dear Blog,

I’d written this poem long ago…as the name suggests, to commemorate the last few days @ XL. But since I am one of the four greatest all-time great poets in the world, I didn’t want to share my jewel so soon :-P …but I feel like sharing it with you now…so here it is…

Words cannot describe the time spent with u...

It’s only the smiles that i feel comforted in...

The 'Hi', the 'Cya', the 'Buzz!’ the 'U there?'...

Have so become a part of life, so ingrained within...


They say its part and parcel, a phase of life,

I say its memories, where feelings reside

I feel like crying, but something stops me...

It’s your success, and I am happy from within...


The laughter, the debates, the leg-pulling, the tests,

Nothing will be the same dear friends, not even the jests

It’s hard to let go, hard to believe,

That u won't be there...I feel emptiness within


Stay in touch comrades; let this not be the end,

We will create destiny, and rules we will bend,

The world will envy us, respect and be inspired,

May u achieve all the success, I pray from within...
