25th December is the birth date, of a dear society friend,
I usually meet him in person, and wish him to that end.
We go on a morning walk daily, weekend ritual being breakfast,
Frequent interactions steal the deal, our friendship is steadfast.
25th December is the birth date, of my roomie from college days,
We rarely see each other nowadays, distance makes you forget who says?
The moment you pick the phone and talk, you are chuddi buddies again,
Our friendship is deep and everlasting, like this sonnet for him I pen.
25th December is the birth date, of a person I look up to,
I never met in real life, but he is on my wishing list too.
A statesman par excellence, an orator, a poet that was sensitive and true,
I share my birthday with another PM, but people like him are far and few.
25th December is the birth date, of a person who became son of God,
From the microcosm to the macrocosm, there are people around who leave us awed.
