Poem dedicated to my dear Chicago cousin sister Nithya:
The smart cousin
Getting almost everything done
With a grace ever so fine
Though underneath, brim-full of passion
Using many a wise cracker
Sharing many a rice cracker
Making Rowena Ravenclaw proud
Thou art too kind
With hugs at the ready
At work, ever steady
Striving even amidst misogyny
Trying to keep all happy
Not to mention, healthy
We share a beautiful memory aplenty
Teasing your kid brother
His Chicago pronunciation screwed over
The perfect lunch at Boojam
At The Village, a Bollywood dance jam
A pre-wedding party to remember
Memories I’ll forget never
You and Aakash, a couple to kill for
May your love last forever
And shalt thou be blessed
With all the success, happiness, peace and prosperity in the world!
