My Father

My icon, my hero was my father,

He was more caring than a mother.

My childhood memories filled with joy,

Always happy never let me cry.

Took me for admission to the best school,

Taught me in all situations to be cool.

Gave me the things I always wanted,

Be it local or be it imported.

Was there with me in every situation,

Helped me in studies gave me dictation.

Woke me up early during exam time,

So that I could score good marks every time.

He was there in all-important moment,

Be it college admission or new job enrolment.

He was very happy whenever I got promotion,

As he always wanted to see me in a good position.

I miss you so much my loving father,

Today, if you were there scene, would be another.

Your blessings will be there always with me,

So that I boldly stand like a tall pine tree.
