"She is a girl" whispered the nurse
to a man, handling a baby small enough to fit in a purse
wrapped in warm blue stripped cloth white
the man's face seemed to grow bright
The man who gifted me the thing called life...
The man who made me survive...
Monkey rolling over bananas... the first toy(still preserved)
forgetting everyone(except his wife) wanted a boy
Dolls, frocks,chocolates... all he could
celebrating, spending more than he should
The man whose angle I am...
The man who, about my gender, cared a damn...
Best school, best brand
he did whatever was in his hand
dressed me up, combed my hair
made my drink, a father who care
The man who dipped my hands in cream...
The man who made me his dream...
His siblings having at least a son in family
without a word and fulfilling all our needs, he spent an year without salary
he got blackmailed, kidnapped and even tortured
but NONE turned to help in any case... its not absurd
The man who faced disheiring for me being a girl...
The man who gave his fore finger for my baby fingers to curl...
How much ever angry he would be
he never raised his hand... thee
whenever a mistake (mine) was in light
I could feel a warmth in his sight
The man who raised me as a delicate flower...
The man who made happiness, love shower...
Oh Daddy its you!!!
You carried me, everyday for a walk on your shoulder
At 4 AM... when i cried to see a crow at that hour...[:)]
Pratiksha Mishu Nimisha... all are same
After all "What's there in a name"
The man who gifted me the thing called life...
The man who made me survive...
