My Father

My Father

As I was a child

He held my finger

And showed me the path…

He taught me to remain rooted

To stand firm always…

A relation of few words

But a bond to never break…

Today as I stand at a juncture

I thank him for his unconditional love

I bow down to him for standing by me

When no one did…

I am blessed to have his undying faith in me

I am grateful to him for fighting my struggle

I feel connected, closer and indebted to him…

I salute his spirit to live life to best.

I salute his spirit to always move on.

I salute him for being a rock solid pillar in times of crisis

At this juncture

I want to tell him,

I owe him a lot

I owe him my life!
