Happy Father's Day
"PAPA JI"
FOR YOU DAD..
I wrote poems for mom and never missed to talk to her any day.
But I could never tell you that I love you ,on any single day.
After getting married, when I am in other home now,
I want to tell you something, I missed telling you long ago
You were always there for me and I took you for granted,
You never showed me much emotions,
but provided me whatever I wanted.
When Mom was studying, you used to make chhotees,
There was a dhaba below your office,
from where you used to get Rotis.
Every Sunday morning, you did our Tel Maalish in the sun,
That's the only reason,
I have got strong muscles in return.
You recorded my voice in cassettes and inspired me to sing,
You sometimes bullied me too,
While teaching me cycling.
You introduced me to diaries
and taught how to write letters in English.
You tried teaching me "Plan and Elevation",
but that was never my dish.
You are a master of Mathematics,
though I could never catch your logarithm lessons.
But if my blood has this subject,
it is because of your verbal discussions.
You took us to visit various places,
though travelling is not my liking,
But Now, I also boast in front of my husband,
"Mera Papa Ji" has shown me this place already.
You encouraged every small interest of mine,
and wanted me to reach new heights.
I could not fulfill all your dreams,
but I swear , I genuinely tried.
Thank you Dad for being patient with me,
even when I made it difficult for you,
But I always trusted your decisions,
because I knew, you love me too.
I am very happy with my life,
though little things keep going here and there,
Responsibilities are pouring,
and I am having my share.
In between, I close my eyes,
and remember all those times.
I miss my home, my childhood,
and all those lovely times.
Those days won't come back now,
and its time to move on.
But I remember my promise,
to make you around the world, on my own:).
HAPPY FATHER'S DAY "PAPA JI"
