Gouthami(My Grand Daughter) Poem by Narsimha Madiraju

Gouthami
MY three year toddler grand Gouthami is a
Play maker in her own small beautiful world.
She considers me as favorite friend, guide and obliging toy.
She turns me into all roles in the world, which defy timeframe.
She spreads her wings to help me fly into high skies.
Accompanying her to gym and, play areas
activates my body and mind.
Time melts in her company, so my woes.
She Doctor's my ailments with great concern.
Her presence made my dark years bright.
She makes me feel good with her spontaneous talk.
She swims through scary waters without fear.
This tiny tot dictates, dominates, and convinces me.
Despite of my years of wisdom and intelligence
I can't answer ticklish question whose love is greater.
Her love increases on a daily basis like morning shadow.
My love and affection diminishes like evening shadow.
I thank almighty for having presented me this
Invaluable, priceless, wonderful gift and opportunity
to observe fondly her growth from close quarters.
I pray god to shower blessings on her birthday.
