A 'happy' Happy Birthday Poem by Pramod Pisharody

Since the morning today,
On my star birthday,
Came many wishes and greetings,
For all new beginnings,
To convey my thanks,
Instead of emoticons, letters and blanks,
I called my loved ones,
And here came a feeling more than once,
I 'saw' happiness in many smiles,
Of all moods, laughs and styles,
I 'heard' happiness in many voices,
Amidst the daily chores and noises,
I 'breathed' happiness in the air,
Of my well wishers deep in prayer,
I 'tasted' happiness in the menus,
In plenty, still many to choose,
I 'felt' happinees with each call,
Any more to come, or that's all?
As the day closes in,
A thought came from within.
Technology brought us virtually near,
But did we drift from each other a little more far?
Let's revive ourselves the traditional way,
And make the next birthday, a 'happy' Happy Birthday'!
