My old friend

I walk around those old tree roots

Gnarled and twisted like my own

It once hid my smaller self

From many an angry soul i knew

The branches seem to know me still

I know it tried but still i fell

Taught me how to fly so high

It all started with that swing

Now it makes me small again

I see the past i long forgot

Lost i know are those days

i remember like my friend

As i cut him to the ground

Dont know why.. i start to cry

Dunno why...but strangely, it reminds me of the old mango tree near yur house...the cricket matches we had with hardboard packets for stump...the cycling expeditions...all our mandatharams...the three of us...u me and sk...strangely it reminds me of those wonderful days...and a firm reassurance that those days are far from gone...we still remain those three naughty kids...eating raw mangoes with salt and chillypowder to go with it...we'll stay this way forever.
