MY BELOVED , AND MY WIFE'S - - -
--- Soldiering on
She was Sixteen then, and I was twenty six,
Born in seventy one, she was young and vibrant,
Actually for her community she was a little old.
I wasn't an adolescent either,
I was a young 'Lieutenant' than, and had always dreamt of some one like her, for a long time. I had a special affinity for her community. She was beautiful too, just as I had expected.
Hence the moment my 'Bua' took me to see 'Her' at the house of a Police Inspector where she had lived her life till then, It was 'love at first sight'. I said 'yes', instantly. Soon she was mine and we both seemed to be made for each other. I looked after her the way a lovelorn and smitten lover is expected to and she too was always there, by my side. I just had to 'desire' and she would be 'game'. Never 'letting me down', never saying 'no' and never 'tired'.
Soon it was time for her to meet my wife. My wife fell for her too, but some how 'She' didn't accept my wife fully. 'She' would once in a while stop 'cooperating' in the company of my wife. I would have to plead her, cajole her and only then she would move. Alone with me she would be in her elements. My wife loved her any way, more than me actually.
This has been the story till date. My wife looks after our home in the hills these days. I live alone. But I have not been able to part with 'Her'. We are still together. She is fine with me. But when my wife comes to visit me once in a while, she is still cut up, even after so many years of 'Cohabiting'. My wife calls 'Her' , her 'Saut', and with good reason. She just does not want to accompany her. My wife loves her nevertheless.
Offlate, my son too has been smitten by her charm. And I don,t blame him. He is a strapping young lad with 'desires'. And she 'despite her age' , still retains the 'charm' and the 'beauty' that has kept me and my wife in love with her, for such a long time.
We call her ' Combat Proven', because of the year she was born in,
'Nineteen Seventy One'.
She is my Seventy one model 'Royel Enfield' BULLET.
Some how and we just don't know why, when my wife rides pillion, she has to stop and refuse to move hence the 'Saut' tag by the dear wife who loves her more than me because of the beautiful moments we have spent together 'on' her, when she 'played up'.
There have been times when I have considered selling her off, but my wife 'Vetoes' the idea. I too am not keen actually. I just tease my wife once in a while for being in love with her 'Saut' more than me.
'Combat Proven' we love you.
We in the 'Olive Greens' are passionate people.
Love ke liye saala kuch bhi karega
Love chahe phir 'Desh' ke liye ho, 'Parivaar' ke liye yaa phir tere liye
my dear ' Combat Proven'

Combat Proven
So many times, it happens too fast
You trade your passion for glory
Don't lose your grip on the dreams of the past
You must fight just to keep them alive
It's the eye of the tiger
It's the thrill of the fight
Risin' up to the challenge
Of our rival
And the last known survivor
Stalks his prey in the night
And he's watching us all with the
Eye of the tiger
You trade your passion for glory
Don't lose your grip on the dreams of the past
You must fight just to keep them alive
It's the eye of the tiger
It's the thrill of the fight
Risin' up to the challenge
Of our rival
And the last known survivor
Stalks his prey in the night
And he's watching us all with the
Eye of the tiger

If you are going to quote an article, you should post a link to the original. If not, it looks like you are trying to pass off as your work, what is someone else's. That is called Plagiarism.

Re: Combat Proven
She's 16 and he's 26. Is that legal?
Jokes aside, I've ridden Royal Enfield before and they are a pain in the butt (literally) to control. They are OK in good road and one less crowded but it's hard to find a good and deserted road in India. Not to mention all those stray cattle, dogs and kids playing cricket in the street.
BTW here's the source of the article http://brasslogic.blogspot.in/2009/03/m ... xteen.html
