Flag Of My Father & The Sunshine Of Mom Poem by Aditya Mudbhary

Born and raised in the city of bricks,
Grew older in distant lands,
In every step I have taken towards glory,
Hides my parents hands.

I knew so less about the ones closest,
Thought I knew what you were,
Twenty years later the eyelids open,
Yet unexplainable in words you are.

Father, You held my hand and taught me well,
Sent me to the finest schools alright,
You made me smile and gave me gold,
But nothing compares to the given soul.

When I was a child I looked at you,
You were all that a man should be,
Honest, Respectable, Hardworking and charming,
Grand and unique, Impossible is nothing to thee.

Mother, You are my guiding light,
You always were and always will be the first love I ever had,
You rocked my world and gave me life,
Incomparable you truly are.

In the hardest of times you stood by me,
In the grandest of times we celebrate,
You punished me yet taught me words,
Now look at me I write this verse.

I salute you father and raise your flag,
For the rest of the world should learn from thee,
Glorious you are in all that you do,
Sharp Dressed man from Head to shoe.

I bow down to you mother and sunbathe in your light,
Your love is like the sunshine on a mid summer day,
Everything I am from the inside out,
Was carved and made by you without a doubt.

Forever shall I be indebted to you,
Always shall I think of you,
We shall walk through this journey of life together,
But for now all I want to say is Thank You.
