With a huge smile on his face and a tear in his eye,
When he saw me for the first time.
I wish I could live that moment for a lifetime.
Napkins, diapers, powder and love, was an equation whose solution was always infinite when he was around.
I wish I could live that moment for a lifetime.
My temperature went high and low at times, my cries were loud enough for the neighbours to shout,
He never said a no for what could make me smile.
I wish I could live that moment for a lifetime.
My first step was all it took that made him high,
My first word that made him reach the cloud nine.
I wish I could live that moment for a lifetime.
Holding the one finger I stood on my feet, he encouraged me to make it big.
So I did, and ran as fast as I could.
I wish I could live that moment for a lifetime.
Day flew past, a child to a teen, a teen to an adult.
It was he who never left my side.
Days became short nights went on till dawn.
He knew it was a part of life.
I wish I could live that moment for a lifetime.
After all my life all I wanted to hear from him is
‘Son I’m proud of you’
Wouldn’t that be fair enough?
