Daddy And Me..! ! ! ! (Happy Fathers Day) Poem by ANANDA GOPAN

My dad always smiles at me,
whenever i come across him, any where...
My dad always smile at me,
Even if i am sleeping....

He sings sometimes
under his breath-
every time,
even when he is distressed..
He sings a man's song
deep with all his feelings in it...
even though his song doesn't swing
like-
the way my mom sings,
the way my brother sings
nor the way any one who know to sing swings...! ! !

My dad's voice starts and stops,
like a car short of gas,
like a engine choked with dust,
But then he clear his throat and the
song begins again.

He talk without any
halt,
The way i do...
He sleeps in that bed,
upper lip open,
The way i do...
I look like him,
i stand like him,
am all like him...
you are the best dad,
i love you the most..! ! !
