Thanksgiving: because a ‘Thank you’ was due!

Thank you!  Thank you!! Thank you!!!

That is all I wanted to say,

And, thought of expressing the same,

In my own creative way.

So,I’m writing a poem for your delight,

Bringing a few memories back to the lime light;

I’m arranging passed moments from my hindsight,

And I hope the scattered jigsaws will be set right.

Over phone,

You sounded confident with your scintillating voice,

And helped me in making my college choice;

But when I reached here,I didn’t find you,

And a ‘Thank you’ is what was due!

I played badminton after quite a long time,

And, we managed the shuttle between the parallel line(s);

I was encouraged to see an ‘active’ you,

And a ‘Thank you’ is what was due!

You always greeted in a pleasing style,

Your jovial appearance and the beautiful smile;

I was spellbound by the warmth shown by you,

And a ‘Thank you’ is what was due!

Just in an year’s spell,

You decoded this institute quite well;

How the people,the place and the system functions,

You shared a lot about the links and the junctions;

I was overwhelmed to see an ‘analyst’ in you,

And a ‘Thank you’ is what was due!

The tips you shared were worth following,

I did try a few and it added to the zing;

The secret of library basement is actually known to a few,

And for sharing it,
a ‘Thank you’ is what was due!

When the EPL team owner inquired,

and an instant answer I required,

I could not think of a negotiable reply,

Then you came for my rescue like an ally;

I was moved to see a 'friend' in you,

And a ‘Thank you’ is what was due!

 The Pink Puma Bag is an element of attraction,

 As it spreads in the air that feminine fraction,

 I was thrilled to see the bag with you,

And a ‘Thank you’ is what was due! 

Well…

Some instances might have been left unquoted,

But, the beautiful ones have been well noted;

I hope to express my gratitude in future too,

And let ‘the Thank you’ be left: as a due!!!
