O Papa My Dear Papa
=================
O Papa my dear Papa,
Look around you, the garden you've created,
And take pride in the way you seeded,
Wonderful human beings who now look up to you,
And are trying to paint a world so full of beautiful hues.
O Papa, my dear Papa,
Carefully examine the setting, the stage you are on,
Isn't it wonderful to be controlling a group singing a beautiful song,
Like the musical maestro you've always been,
Take centre stage, feel the power and be seen.
O Papa, my dear Papa,
Life is full of moments and beginnings,
One moment dies to let the other begin,
The beginning moment beckons you,
To see it, to appreciate it and be loved by you.
O Papa, my dear Papa,
Your garden is now so full of young buds,
Craving for your carress, your gentle touch,
Crying mercilessly to catch your attention,
Challenging you to now change some diapers :-).
O Papa, my dear Papa,
look inside you and you will find a lot of light,
Emanating from some beautiful memories,
And from the dawn that lies ahead,
So full of newer battles and forts to be won.
O Papa, my dear Papa,
The general of a big growing army,
Blow the bugle, announce to the world,
That the tiger has awaken from his illusionary slumber,
And is now ready to lead in rain and thunder.
O Papa, my dear Papa,
I am now trying to be like you,
Trying to provide the same warm, cozy nest,
To the fledgling being running your blood,
That you once gave us in this cold world.
I hope I will pass this test,
And years hence will get something like this,
As testimony to a wonderful life led,
And beckoning me to go on and on,
Spreading the wisdom, love and affection.
