When it comes to getting on your nerves, there's nothing that beats aunts. They come, talk nonsense and walk away. This one's one of those many conversations - aunts in their oh-so-characteristic fashion.
Hello beta, how are you?
Saw you when you were this little
And now look at you!
You were so naughty
Kept pulling my hair pin
Now you are so well-mannered
Just grown darker and a little too thin
Oh, so you are working?!
That’s a good way to pass time
Now society is so modern
In our days, it was considered a crime
You must be knowing cooking-shuking
Afterall, that is a must even today
For no matter how much you study
Eventually, you have to make chapatis everyday
It's high time you get married
25 years is quite late
Then people will start talking nonsense
Leaving a sweet girl like you irate
But thank your stars, for I have brought
A perfect match your way
5.10’, fair and studied till class 12
But my my, what an impressive pay!
Don’t go by his criminal looks
Neither take note of his bulging fat
After marriage even girls gain weight
You know, in sindhis it’s like that
Now don't think too much
Or keep waiting for that 'soul mate'
Some compromises you have to make
Rest, i'm telling you - leave it to fate
I think I must leave now
But do think about this proposal
Any more details you want to know
I'm always at your disposal

so glad to have you back! And yes, i'm sure every girl has been through the same some time or the other.
@nikheel
guess it's your first comment on my blog! Welcome.
Thanks!
In 10 to 15 yrs time, you too would be doing your share of match making for eligible spinsters in your neighborhood & close relations. It's circle of life :)
Nice verse. Sounded very effortless & "real".
@parikrama
There's no problem in match-making but there is a 'salika' to do it.
If i do fall into this circle 10-15yrs down the line, i will make sure not to follow the footsteps of my oh-so-irritating aunts.
Thanks for your comments. Hope to see you around!
This gives me an idea to write something about happily married...check it out tomorrow.
Thanks

Aha, the charm of India :-)

@gyanban
welcome to the blog! Happily Married - i thought that was an oxymoron :P
Read your side of the story - lovely!
@anil
:) I wonder if it's got to do with aunts in general or only with Indian aunts.
@lakshmi
glad you liked it! thanks :)
hi bhumika,
