Ode To My Child - 2 Poem by Putholi Arumugham T

Ode To My Child - 2

Rating: 5.0


A boy or a girl, whomever you shall be
It does make no slightest bother to me.
A body so healthy, mind so sound and a life so glee
That is all I would ever want to see


You may be white as sun or you may be dark as night
that shall never alter my love for you.
your thoughts should be fair and actions so right
and love for every other living should be true


Your eyes shall be small in scale or wide as of a fish
Your nose could be blunt at end or sharp that of a shark
Lips slender or large, but all these go valueless in lifes mark
But be careful not to be rude, proud, rubbish or selfish
Be generous, lovable, active, smart, honest, brave and person so rare
For they shall all tell the world in future whom you were.

A truly beautiful poem Putholi. I can see you are going to be a loving responsible parent and it is the love of a child that is something so precious. I wrote a poem for my daughter when she was born and I start by saying 'As poetry connects us to the essence, you are connected to me'. And it is this soul essence that binds us to our children with eternal love. One day you will be able to show your child this loving poem to keep forever. 10 Karin Anderson
