Redefining the ‘Niece’

The wonderful thing about them

Is what they mean to us over time,

Not quite as strict as the daughter

Can often be partners too in crime,

Nieces carry old wisdom of the ages

Have knack of handling things right,

Learning ‘ropes’ from those around

Never giving up without a good fight,

Redefine ‘NIECE’ with no ‘N’ & ‘E’s

They’re warm as fire & cool as ‘ICE’

Steady & resolute in their promises,

Leave out an ‘E’, they’re just ‘NICE’,

We’re fortunate to have great Nieces

Our Nephews no less commendable,

Yet in pampering us Uncles & Aunts

Dear Nieces have been so admirable !

Blessings & Many Happy Returns

Shreya Baksi Sen, Niece No 1 !
