Analysis of To Husband With Love:

Sabita Panicker 1980 (Odisha)



Stand by me through thick and thin as you always do,

Sooth me with your kind words when I'm feeling blue.

Hold my hand when the slope is steep and the mark is far,

Care for me and our kids, solicitous as you are.

We may not be the perfect couple, yes I agree!

We have had a fair share of disapprovals and disagree.

But being a perfect couple is not a marriage goal,

But about embracing imperfections with profound soul.

Its been 13 years we've been walking hand in hand as man and wife,

A common dream a common goal  we slip together in the hourglass of life.
