The year-long drought..!!

Unlike the usual projects, ours was a unique lot,
Without an inch of work, employees were left to rot.


The mood was dull, and the faces hung low.
But the day you showed up, we all moaned "Oh..!!"


It's amazing how a pretty lady changes the scene,
The boys who sulked in lethargy, were today so keen..!


Along with the charm, a ray of hope you brought,
Your smile finally ended the year-long drought.


The game of chase, began, quite sooner than I thought,
Each trying his hand, leaving me in a tight-spot.


For, I never mastered the art of wooing,
But in the corner of my heart, love indeed was brewing.


Every few minutes, I managed to steal a few glances,
Learning that you are single only increased my chances.


My happiness knew no bounds, when I caught you staring,
Considering 'em lucky, I kissed my new-shoes I was wearing.


Looking forward to our rendezvous, I came dressed in white,
Baby, you just add some color and I'll always be your knight..!
