Father's Day
Greetings cards with wine or wellies
Gardening, golf and air guitars
Flawless lawns, beer bellies
For this is what you are
You’re slower, balder, fuller faced
Your jokes fall flat and stale
That bike you bought, still in its place
Another mid-life fail
The Lycra was more than a stretch
You ’re living in the past

His Last Journey - An Ode To My Father
जिस मिट्टी में जन्मा था तू
उस मिट्टी से मिलाने लाया हूँ
जिस गाँव से बनी हस्ती तेरी
वो गाँव दिखाने लाया हूँ
जिस गर्मी से तप तू कठोर हुआ
वो सूरज दिखाने लाया हूँ
जिस नरमी से तू मृदभोर हुआ
उस चाँद से मिलाने लाया हूँ
सोता था जिस ओस की चादर ओढ़
वो आसमान दिखाने लाया हूँ
हर बातें जिसकी देती थी तुझे झँझोड़
उस काका से फिर मिलने लाया हूँ

Happy Fathers Day
To all the Dads, Grandads and Husbands,
Happy Fathers Day to you.
Today is the day we show our appreciation
for everything you do.
Gifts, cards and messages of thanks,
will be sent across the nation.
Gather together if you can, if not,
maybe a virtual celebration.
A difficult day for those whose
loved ones are no longer here.
Reminiscing on happy memories

Daddy's Girl
As she looks upon the man
Her eyes give her away
And you can see the truth
Of her heart and soul
She loves him, her father
Complete love, innocence
So beautiful and magical
With eyes as bright as the moon
A smile that shines like the sun
Their bond is unbreakable
For her love knows no limits
She will forever be his daughter
Her hero he will be
