My Dearest Parents Poem by Geeta Radhakrishna Menon

My Dearest Parents

Rating: 4.7


I have no idea, where you both are now,
But wherever you are, in Spirit or Body,
I wish to acknowledge, all that you have bestowed,
Beautiful memories for me, with fond remembrance!

Mom, you showered me with so much of love,
Majestic attitude and style,
Myriad stories of joy and laughter,
Melodious music, which I now sing in your memory!

Dad, you blessed me with thousand books,
Dedication to read and educate, more and more,
Devotion through spiritual texts and deeds,
Dance and sing to enjoy the aesthetic bliss!

My wonderful, dearest Parents,
I bow down before you with much gratitude and love,
Today, the 4th of September, when you took the wows of marriage,
To remain together, faithful and steadfast, till the last day of your lives.

Many, many, thanks dearest Parents,
Your loving daughter,
Geeta

Great tribute to beloved parents from a gifted and a grateful daughter. Though, their contribution cannot be fully grasped and quantified, you have tried to put it in a few words with complete humility. Thanks a lot, Geeta ji. We can understand your feelings on this very special day. Following words reflect so much of their persona: so much of love.... Majestic attitude and style, with thousand books.... spiritual texts and deeds, Dance and sing to enjoy the aesthetic bliss!

Rajnish ji, you understand my poems so well, specially the deep sentiment attached to the poems. It is not possible to count the innumerable of things that the parents have done for their children. The least one can do is to fondly remember them with much gratitude. It is a great blessing to have wonderful parents. Thank you so much Rajnish ji.

How lucky are the parents of Dr. Geeta Radhakrishna Menon! I have seen many times someone is born who is just like the grandparents. According to Hindu faith grandparents are reborn as grandchildren. Your love for your parents can perform such a miracle. I really liked this poem.
