You are my coolest brother
Entertaining to the core
Often, you evoke laughs
An expert in picking unique movies
Hard to imagine having fun
When you are gone
Your presence lights up our day
Very rarely, are you unhappy!

You are my coolest brother
A quirky sense of humour
In Ravenclaw, you belong
Something's always happening
Whenever you're around
You're one of a kind!!

You are my coolest brother
Unlimited fun, have we had together
Especially in recent times
Starting from the pandemic years
The Senji Kottai Fort trek
The tour of Pulicat Lake
Dining at Flower Drum
You and your family are simply awesome!!

You are my coolest brother
Underneath your gung-** exterior
Lies a kind and caring interior
You make everybody feel better
Especially when there's a loss
Your soul, may God bless!!

You are my coolest brother
Be the way you are
Don't change for anyone
Hopefully, see you soon!!

A gem of a sister, you are
Technically though, my aunt you are
But that matters not
Kind to a fault
Sweet as gulab jamun
At times, a strict person
Possessing nerves of steel
Thoroughly trustworthy and dependable
A model wife and mother
On the whole, an extremely lovable character!

A gem of a sister, you are
Anybody and everybody, you care for
Immensely valuable, your counsel
Above all, very cool
Irrespective of the situation
Always thinking "I can!"
A bedrock for the entire family
And finally, rarely unhappy!!

A gem of a sister, you are
So lively, your children are
Of course, mischievous at times
Nevertheless, they bring happiness
Even in times of despair
Hence, bright will be your future!!

A gem of a sister, you are
Dear to me, forever
Well, hope we catch up soon
Do keep that adorable smile on!!

So happy am I, that you came
We had a fantabulous time
Talking for hour after hour
Catching up with each other
Relishing piping hot Vada Pavs
Followed by Tiramisu jars
And last but not the least
The best Hot Chocolate!

So happy am I, that you came
Really made me beam
All sorts of topics, did we discuss
Cricket, tennis, work, politics
Music, food, travel, trains
All in all, had a blast
Half a day free of stress
And full of entertainment!!

So happy am I, that you came
After a long, long time
Well, hope we meet again fast
So I can give the promised treat
Until then, take care, dear brothers
Wish you oodles of love, success, happiness and peace!!

You are a beautiful person
Really happy am I, to have you as my cousin
Sweet and caring by nature
Unquestionable, is your character
Stoked was I, to meet you last year
And of course Dr. Karthik and little Ninad
The three of you share a super cute bond
And Chikku is such a dear
He even came to Mumbai last December
Though it was a very short visit
With all of us, was he an instant hit
Of course, we don't speak a lot
But I find your presence a source of comfort
You are extremely innocent
Though naive, certainly are you not
Moreover, you are quite humble and unassuming
Which, in this cruel world, often means everything
I would love to meet you again in the near future
May you and family be blessed with all that you hold dear!

Dear Krithika, wish you a very happy birthday
Seldom, are you not full of joy
Conversing with you is a lot of fun
Thou art such a cool cousin!

Dear Krithika, wish you a very happy birthday
We may not chat everyday
Nevertheless, we share a lovely little bond
Thank you so much, for appreciating my poems to no end!!

Dear Krithika, wish you a very happy birthday
May everything go your way
Many memorable moments, have we shared
Quite a lot of fun, have we had
Always, will I cherish our relationship
Your affection for me runs deep!!

Dear Krithika, wish you a very happy birthday
May you have a fantabulous day
May you and your family get some quality time together
Wishing you a fantastic future
And may the Almighty bless you abundantly forevermore!!

Dear Bro, wish you many happy returns

Dear Bro, wish you many happy returns
I so love our visits to Eating Circles
Your jokes keep me entertained
Some of them are absolute gold!!

Dear Bro, wish you many happy returns
Cheers me up, does your mere presence
You are also amongst the coolest fathers
Sahana is so much fun to be around
Though of course, on the other hand
She can be devilishly tricky at times!!

To be highly valued, are your suggestions
You are almost like a mentor
For us, so much do you care!!

An avid cricket and tennis lover
Around you, is there a hell lot of cheer!

Yes, you are a bit reserved usually
But in a rather sweet way
And when it comes to topics of interest
You are at your talkative best!!

An awesome cousin, you are
Proud am I, to have you as my little brother
Your American accent is quite strong
In tennis, seldom do you go wrong
The Wimbledon camping experience would definitely not have been the same
Without you at the helm
However, you can be really funny at times
Your pronunciation of Chicago was truly hilarious!!

An awesome cousin, you are
Beyond your years, are you mature
We had a great time during the WTC final
In spite of India's disappointing performance
Thanks chiefly to your presence
Highly entertained, do you always keep us all!!

Here's hoping we meet up soon
Like Nithya told me yesterday, we all should go on a vacation

Whenever you are around, vanish, does all my pain
Incredibly warm and friendly

You also have a rather attractive American accent
Not to mention, some typical Ravenclaw wit!!

To your wedding, unfortunately could I not come
For that, am I so sorry
But for Akash and you, am I extremely happy!!

What all have you done for me, I am just unable to count
Truly do I love you as a sister, from the bottom of my heart!!

A very very dear cousin, you are
Interacting with you is such a pleasure
That I often wish the conversation never ends

And I assure you that I will learn from my mistakes
And more importantly, act on my words!!
