We encounter many firsts in life bit there are few firsts like no other.
This ode is an tribute to those first ones which hold a certain afflixtion in my heart.
Some always vie for first
For many last is better
But for me both
First and last equally matter
Though a special place
First one has in heart
And throughout eternity
It will last
The water stood still
Until the stone was hurled
And countless concentric circles
In water created ripples
Down the rabbit hole
Soon I descend
And amazed I was
As Alice in wonderland
The objects I loved
With so intensity
Could now feel them
In my vicinity
That first toy I had
And that lovely tricycle
The romp around the city
On first bicycle
Each one to his memory
Has firmly attached
Those lovely ” First Ones”
We ever had.
And though new one
Came and replace the old
A grip on our heart they
Certainly hold
My first hero ranger
Prized possession it was
And got hold of it when
Came first in the class
Not a nook was spared
Across the whole city
My bike and I seemed
Bound for perpetuity
Alas! It was not to be so
And we parted our way
Coz due to my carelessness
It was stolen away
A sleek silvery phone
L2, was my first mobile
Reminiscing about it
I often smile
Through period of ecstasy
And amidst pall of gloom
My phone stood by me
To the day of doom
It stored my happiness
Sadness it concealed
And to it my secrets
I often revealed
And I clearly remember
The day it broke down
Drenched in rain, i
For it mourned
And infinite list of first ones
I battled all night
And various hues of emotions
Kept me awake upright
Each and every moment
Etched deep in the heart
Now was laid bare
As soul was opened apart
Tangible one I discussed
Abstruse I could not
For better they reside
In their hide out
Special they are and
Also the best
First ones, no denying that
Are far ahead than rest
One seldom values
The precious gifts one own
Sense it’s worth only
Long after they are gone
All first are special
But one exceeds all
And it’ll remain at pinnacle
And never will it fall
For first it was
Will also be last
will be in future
As it was in past
This ode is testimony
To THAT FIRST ONE
One I’ll never forget
In years to come
Interesting!
The first.π€
I just wish Prankies ,
the first could always last
I mean first was the last also
Or first lasted forever.
And then

You truly knew my answer and it’s an irony that perfect life is nothing but a amalgamation of imperfect tidbits
