Engagement Story

20.06.1975

Yesterday my mother told me a story,

of a dramatic engagement in history!

Where the hero intelligent, nice and dashing,

Rejects the heroine short at measuring!

Then her uncle just calls him up,

To improve the situation of what was up!

He tells him the pros of her from "A to G"

Which, from "H's Height" had more priority!

Then the prince changes his mind,

Heart melts and feels proud on his find!

Tells his mom on marriage confirmation,

Cutting off other maidens' consideration!

His mother takes care of further events,

Driving the car without any dents

With him & with her taking astrologers’ word,

She heads to the home of the math nerd!

To join forces both armies decide,

And promise to never offend or collide!

So, they lived happily ever after,

No regrets, only lots of laughter!

All this plot, fictional it may seem,

But its my grandparents, a living meme!

Even after 45 years since this day,

they maintain harmony in every way!

A rose plant as the anniversary gift,

Beautifully tells their life in gist!
