N-80







N-80
[ Nanaji @ 80 ]










At the Agra Cantt station,
Half past mid-night,
There was a man standing under the light,
He was there with a big Jar,
Parked outside was FIAT car.
As soon as the train reached the station,
Mummy yelled in sensation,
'Look Look who has come !!!'
And, He was there for out WELCOME.
Then he served us the Chilled 'Roo-Afzaa',
To which we in corous did Wah ! Wah !! Wah !!!

You must be wondering who is HE.............
He is none other than 'MY NANAJI'.

Today Nanaji turned 80,
Sharing Togetherness, Fun and Gaiety;
Still looking as young as 20,
Spreading love around in plenty.

He taught me to stand on my feet,
Kachoris & Jalebees were healthy treat;
On Atlas he showed me the world around,
And the 'TAJ MAHAL' standing tall on the ground.

Alibaba in motion.
With 40 thieves behind,
'VIEW Master's' technique just ignited my mind.
The Art of Paper cutting , He taught to me very well,
In each & every visit, He always had something new to tell.
Whenever I'm with him,
My practical classes are always ON,
From Key & Lock to the Theory of the Clock,
The classes continue through dusk & dawn.

At the Age of 60,
He left TATA's TISCO,
Now at the age of 80,
He is as new as 'TATA NANO'.
He is the center of our family,
Around whom we all revolve,
As you can see the picture,
The 'Cover Picture'[Of the invitation card] says it all.

Four generations have gathered here,
For this HAPPY cause,
So let us all Pause,
And give NANAJI a Hearty Applause.
