Standing on the dais, Ravish was super excited,
To convey his feelings today, he had decided..
“Ladies and gentlemen, may I have your attention please,
I just want the moment here to freeze..
Mom, this is your day today,
I truly want it to be yours every day..
Even before I opened my eyes,
I had become the reason for your cries..
You bore me months and still do bear,
In my ups and downs, strengths or fear..
From my tantrums to my tears,
From my gossips to my illogical stories u did hear..
Being my first teacher to my darling cook,
My doctor and my unread book..
My crime partner and my secret keeper,
Yeah, also the detective secret digger..
Handling my anger to letting me be me,
You were always the one I wanted you to be..
Even after Dad left us alone,
You were the star in my life that shone..
You lived for me, suppressed your feelings,
My happiness were your only dealings..
Time has come to live your life,
Hey, Mr. Parikh, never let her for anything strive..
What a coincidence, Maa, today is your 46th birthday,
And idiot me giving emotional speech on your marriage reception day..
I know no one can replace my dad,
But Mr. Parikh is also not bad..
You’ve found the right soul mate,
I am a proud son, and you the best MAA I could get..”
Indeed very happy for his MAA,
He whispered, ” I Miss You Paa….”
