My Friend & His Daughter







Sweetie,


Long have I waited to see you smile & cuddle up and sigh,
That look on your face tells it all;
That I'm lucky I can make you feel safe
When I see you 'morrow goin' away from home
Schools, friends, here and there
I'll sweat like a kid like I never 've anywhere;
Just le'mme know anything you need - 
Anything... I swear I'll be with you in mind and deed


...........


Le'me now tell you something which I feel father,
Feels so warm and unseparable so secure
That I know You'll be there to cheer me up 
When I have failed even the best of your wishes
That only you'll be there like a shadow to me
When I'm lonely and alone and I've none to guide me.

(Dedicated to my bro & friend Anand Raja Das and his daughter (see pic.)

    Very sweet poem. My dad is always my support system. He and I know how much it pains when something doesn't work. He makes sure I get best of everything. I am proud that he is my father.
