For my friends, Purvi and Nimesh, Mumbai, India.
Togetherness lends an unfathomable depth to a miracle called life
The bodiless soulless doppelganger silently fleshes up as a wife
Bland routines now do sparkle with wit, love and even strife
A mere look works as an elixir, a plain word twists like a knife
Empty chambers once drearily smothered by a bleary-eyed silence
Erupt saucily into vineyards, beaches, mind's ephemeral violence
Solitude seeps away in hazy wisps, while dreams sulk alone
Life palpitates, throbs, simply scintillates on its golden throne.
Music, like an angel's fingers, beats a celstial tattoo
And if there be unploughed emotions, covers that too.
My friends with a trilling and chanting heart, I unleash you
Into an oceanful of love, and a skyful of possibiliites, I wish you.

Nimesh & Purvi
Deb, this poem was written for my young friends who got married last December
Purvi and Nimesh. Coincidentally they have commented right after you...
These were my good wishes for them.
How you doin, P & N?
Cheerz!
I admire your perceptive interest and frankness in expression.
Thanks and cheerz!
