Soulmates are forever!
August 2010
A love story that changed as the years rolled
He scorned the opposition, warnings, and alarms,
Lightning fell as she swooned and fell into his arms.
Their aura melted and they saw light unexplained
In love samadhi, they were submerged and remained.
They knew they were twin souls at the universe’s dawn,
Now, finally brought together, magnetically drawn.
They sat amidst the roses and candles to dine.
He asked, “I want to be yours, will you be mine?”

“From now, we will be original, and our love will shine,
Not the clichéd rose, I’ll call you my sweet porcupine!”
“It’s true love indeed that loves in spite of thorns,
I too love you unconditionally, my darling bull with horns!”
With this, they dialled the number on their cosmic mobile
So that they could register in the ‘eternally-wedded’ file.
One beautiful moonlit night they formally became one,
Doing on their wedding day and night, all that had to be done.
The first year passed as if time was a dream,
The days flowed merrily like a blissful stream.
The second year, their dreams changed a bit,
They had their, you know, ‘occasional marital fit.’
On their third anniversary, the cosmic crew got feelers,
The time had come to send in the psychic healers!
They saw the divine feminine was sharpening her pines,
As hooves and horns became weapons of the macho masculine.
This sent a shudder through the cosmic matrix,
Urgent summons were sent to address this fix.
Finally, the angels were able to summon the fates,
“How can things go wrong with such divine soulmates?’
Imagine! a cosmically ordained couple throwing dishes,
And wanting the other to become food for fishes!
“Please bless them or teach them with nudges,
Just help them get rid of ridiculous grudges!”
“We are only the fates we have a limited decree
To continue or end their love story, they are free.’
Soulmates are cool if they search and pine,
From a distance, everything appears divine!
“But you tie them and hope for supernatural magic,
No wonder all the romantic comedies become tragic!”
The pro-soulmates camp took a serious beating,
Concluding that some things are meant to be fleeting.
They changed their marketing strategy and took a bow,
Registering every divine union as ‘Soulmates – for now!”
