Happy Birthday, Appa!!

Happy Birthday, Appa!

You are 73 today!!!
But do you look that way???

Lots of memories,
Lots of fondness,
My eyes damp and
I can never thank God, enough!!!

I wish to god
You outlive me,
Bless my son and his son too!
The selfless love
You showered on me...

You next to me,
On my first day to school,
On my first day to college,
On my first day to work :)
My friends teased, yet you were there, silently behind!

Don't know what I did,
To deserve you, my dad dearest!
A million times I want to shout, "Love you, Dad dearest"!
But, moments we shared, I can't explain!
Words can never do justice to the love we share...
If, I am born again and I would want you to be my dad!

Reliving these 39 years,
Everyday joyful indeed,
"Dad and Daughter!", people teased,
Yet we enjoy our days in peace!
