WHITE ENVELOPES (From dear sister to a brother)


Colorful threads enclosed within,
with letters of love and care;
Dispatched to plains far off,
through crowded places and deserted traces
with men of different races and extremely stranger faces!

Finally carried by mailman to the unknown doors,
to familiar people residing within,
sharing common childhood house-hold.

Household of everlasting memories and a booster for nostalgia.

These familiar humans far off have been an important part, despite distance long enough they never came out of the heart.

Belonging of togetherness so pious value it beholds!

These people who are a part of home, have a little home away from home.

Calling out to all the dear lovely brothers,
no matter whether you are far off, or someplace near,

My love and blessings will always be there, no matter how much the sky seems clear.

Those colourful, memories will remain,
enclosed within white envelopes which I share with you every year.
                                                           -A sister
