Gaper

My maiden friend at three

Partner in pranks and tricks

Licked and laughed with you

Cats nose poke, whispers and yelps

 

In adolescence, my confession box

I could open the Pandora box

Everyday matters and muddles

I recapped smiles and catwalks for nod

 

My heartbreaks and affairs

Love letters and love dialogues

Emotional tears and slaughtering laughter

You! Who else knew!

 

You helped me with stage fright

Itemized disco and melodies

Tryouts for first interview

My master guide at this and that juncture

 

 Solitary buddy who never lies

Withered I with wrinkled face

Silver locks and crow feet eyes

Oh Mirror! My companion in the transit.
