brought tears to my eyes it reminded of the happy times i spent there...the twelve years of joy....and the best part was the mango i crave for it but what i get here is sour bitter tanned mango pulps... 😭 just eagerly waiting for my vacations to begin so i can go back and have a blast...good job 👏 👏 👏

That was wonderful Sheena - made me all nostalgic. Oh those glorious years spent growing up in India with not a worry in the world. I feel like having guava and my favorite alphonso mango right now.

Sheena,

That was beautifully penned! It was one of the best piece of poetry that I've read. (I also write and read a lot of poetry though most in Urdu/Hindi/Punjabi). It was really touching as I'm also away from home (Pakistan). Though, not an NRI, I call myself NRP (Non-Resident Pakistani) lol!

That poem totally shows what this forum has really done for so many of us. I've made many good friends here and found the three best friends whome I love the most in this Forum.

However, I must say, we also must thank Ekta because if it wasn't for Ekta, I would've never watched KS (as I only started watching becaues 1)Ram was making a comeback and 2) it was a Ekta Kapoor serial), otherwise, I wouldn't have been so active on this forum.

Again, very beautifully penned. Loved it. Thank you for sharing with all of us!

Aww Sheenu, such a beautiful poem!!👏........definitely a compliment cause I'm not into a lot of poetry!😕

P.S. did I read right - banyans?.........is their a reason for this word because honest to God I'm getting images of Jai when he woke up after June 19th😆.........for someone who's stinking rich, his nightwear and undergarments are eeeks!
