The B Company

One fine day hubby dear announced,
Silicon Valley be the place, where he will bowl.
I could not go, tears rolled down.
Two months more, he was sure,
When we will be three,
together we will spree.
So, when I bore a lovely little boy
The proud dad sure was overjoyed.
Off we flew down to the valley,
and landed straight in the Electronic City.
A beautiful sight, Valley in the night,
Twinkling stars and bright big lights.

My neighbours too were a pure delight.
Mrs and Mr Rao had a daughter bright,
who played with Neo everyday at twilight.
Their son too a techie, matched the sister upright.

Sometimes I felt lonely, such a strange city.
We soon had company, too my surprise.
The kohlis and Duttas were soon to arrive.
The brotherly Mr Kant, was the only bachelor to survive.
The Shuklas and Singhs too had blissful married life.
Off we all went partying at Maharaja's in the night.
Bannerghatta and Lal bagh were destinations in bright sunlight.
Life was a roller - coaster ride,
when, on Silk board- Hosur road,
The B-company had their drive.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style.

I know exactly how you feel Dhriti when I moved to the Bay Area many years ago. My husband grew up here but I left all of my family and friends, except one, behind. Thank goodness for my "B" company. Thank you for sharing your experience. Blessings.
