Thank You Poem by Jay P Narain

Thanks to the heavens,
I descended one late night,
bewildered, confused and crying,
only to be comforted by the touch of Mom's hands.

Thanks to my parents,
All their efforts and love molded me up,
Whether it was trying or happy times,
they always stood behind me with hand on my shoulders.

Thanks to my brothers, sisters, siblings and friends,
Some of you were my role models, some of you my heroes,
I looked at you all the time and found my inspirations,
Your love, company and togetherness reared me to become what I am today..

Thanks to my wife,
The stranger who came along and became my best half,
We sailed together in the turbulent river of life,
Enjoyed the best moments and overcame the worst alike.

Thanks to everyone who touched our lives,
we could not be happy by ourselves,
until we shared our happiness with you.
