MY FIRST LOVE …
[Foreward : Finally I’m 5 poems old… So no more excuses from my side and no more pleas of ‘Going easy’ on me … It’s a Totally Unconventional poem …
Read and let me know through your comments whether you hate it or Totally hate it {There is an overdose of LOVE in this poem itself} …Enjoy!!!]
Now its **/**/2007 … Lets Start …
I opened the Door, sat in the Driver’s seat
Heart beats bursting, but Morale upbeat.
Turned on the Ignition, Fuel rushed through my Vein
No wonder I Drove for the first time, I went Insane
Adrenaline pumping within made 30kmph feel like Formula 1
Even though have weak memory, remember Sure did I this one .
Surely had my mind on something, It was a delicious Attraction
“I want to be a Driver !! ”,declared I to my parents
Laugh they did, not knowing that I was Hell bent
Hot Wheels, Maisto were the brands I would swear of
As Birthday gifts, only 4 wheelers I would approve of
Was a Fanatic, fantasy was my Injection
Never did I know that I would grow up loving the word “Traction”
“The Title is inappropriate !!! ” You would by now shout
I’d say ,”Wait !! Have patience, got to say a thing…
This is a Love Story indeed, have a lot more to Sing …”
So let me now bring you right to the centre of this Topic
I would now talk about ‘Her’, to give you a Kick .
In or outside the “Tube”, ”She’s Marvellous !!”, I’d cry
My jaw dropped and remained still the First time I saw ‘Her’
I am Blushing now, as the image of that day flashes so clear
In front of my eyes, there 'she' elegantly stood
Graceful, Beautiful and Wonderful, 'she' made my mood
Never had seen such a wonderful thing before
Spent sleepless nights imagining ‘Her’ and ‘Me’ by the Sea shore
I was just 7 years old when ‘she’ did Attract
“Naughty” would be the only word that would surely spring up in your mind
I swear ,”I was Innocent !!! ”, but ‘she’ was all my eyes could find.
But then there was one sad thing that I had to Understand
She was on the other side of the TV doing things Grand
As I started to grow up, her distance made me Sick
Crush was all she had become, was it a Flattering trick ???
I still had not met her, but our Bond was still Discrete
Year after year she was getting famous, but still remained soooo sweet …
One thing I must mention, her façade was always Constant
She always wore Red, since I was 7 till I was at my 18th year’s end
Now there is no point keeping you engaged in this Riddle
Wouldn’t you ask me, who ‘Miss Red’ was ??? ‘cause I can see your Fingers fiddle
Okay, OK, I’ll disclose whom I was talking all about
It was the “ SCUDERIA FERRARI Formula 1 CAR” , unlike you might have surely thought !!!
Now please don’t bang your head on the nearest wall
I would thank you for your Patience and Bravery after all !!
I’m now big enough, and surely know what LOVE means
But still if someone asks me about MY FIRST LOVE,
“FERRARI” for Sure, I would scream !!!
