'Are you the one, I've been waiting for, all my life? <br />Are you the one, he has made, for me alone? ' <br />At long last, have I met the angel of my dreamful quest, <br />In mind and body, in heart and soul with beauty blest. <br />How I salute God for this delectable present in my nest! <br />Our ideas and ideals in harmony concur, <br />Our aspirations and values run together. <br />Yes, we are a made for each other couple, <br />Are much more than one plus one simple. <br />By synergism, we will achieve together surely, <br />A lot more than each of us can separately. <br />Our attraction is not just physical and momentary, <br />But a two-in-one lifelong sacramental commentary <br />On jointly taking on the life's complex struggles and pulls, <br />On tackling its highs and lows, summers and winters full, <br />On co-authoring many a noble deed to our fill, <br />Worthy of a life blessed by the divine will. <br /> <br />[Published originally in the Deccan Chronicle English daily, Sept 21,2003, as the week's best verse, in their 'Be a poet' contest. They used to provide a lead, and you had to follow it up with your own creation. It's another story, though, that the announced prize of Rs 150 never arrived! ]<br /><br />AtreyaSarma Uppaluri<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-made-for-each-other-couple/
