He cried when I cried
He stayed up all night to play with me, and went to work next morning while I slept peacefully
He got himself no new shirt, but brought me three new dresses instead
He taught me to make soap bubbles, He did it to make me smile
He stood in a long queue even while his legs ached to get me in a good school
We grew up together.
I turned rebellious, He turned more understanding
I screamed, He listened
I cried, He hugged
I left him & went with my friends while he sat home alone
We grew up more
I started to go to work, while he ended his tenure
I had problems, he gave me all his support
I was anxious, he taught me patience
We grew up some more
He found someone who would love me more
I was time for me to go and he cried more
Guess we never grew up
He still calls me "Child"
He still worries for me
His little girl, I will always be, lucky I am to have you around me
Appa, I love you, I always do, for everything you have done. Thank you
Happy Father's Day Appa.
