LIFE COMPANION

 

LIFE COMPANION

 

Deny to confide deep intimacy,

Loved before marriage, ecstasy,

Eon couple believes each other,

The year rolled on trust enamor,(1)

 

Confess anger rebuttals happen,

Miraculously timely help sharpen,

Forget how quickly love winner,

Her attention care minute cover, (2)

 

Seen and sad, her anxious eyes,

Windows open, she waits precise,

Thousand questions reply detail,

Our lives lack suspicion yet sail, (3)

 

Smooth day-to-day routine deal,

Service life, clerical, salary seal,

Mediocre income adjust credits,

Wife her calculation item sheets, (4)

 

Respect conveys my admiration,

She maintains budget caution,

Tell honestly less we believe luck,

Accepted her decisions, in a sock, (5)

 

Years after her saving a million,

Saved home budget confession,

Hardships no domestic woman,

Herself sweeps floors wash can, (6)

 

Grocery, job weekly vegetables,

Disbelieved bank saving trebles,

Today, we purchased our house,

Multistoried building, of course, (7)

 

Posh locality clears installments,

Calculate meticulously elements,

She paid the cost of the flat, finally,

My salary is meager, fails to tally, (viii)

 

Cried, embraced her, surprised,

Her judicious acumen surmised,

Shifted our belongings soon felt,

Questions, how she meets dealt, (9)

 

The simple answer, short, her savings,

She made plans possible ensuing,

Working now with her decorates,

Furniture, gadgets, saving dates, (10)

 

She bought, from home savings,

Decade of our marriage feelings,

Her skill in stitching make dresses,

The clothes she prepares possess, (11)

 

Our only child, a daughter, studies,

Mom is her teacher exam remedies,

Amazes the kid, memorize books,

Writing her best medicine hooks, (12)

 

Postgraduate, my wife, gold medal,

Opted to be a housewife magical,

Established today as a family man,

Besides my wife, capability, can, (13)

 

It fails my recourses she achieves,

Her uncanny sense of saving lives,

Admit to confess her prowess nail,

She built our home, secured sail, (14)

 

If I ask her how made it possible,

Her life companion saving simple,

My life companion, my wife hail,

Meager income, her savings trail. (15)
