MY CHILD

FOOT BY FOOT

I hold your hands
   For you to take a step
   For you to tread ahead
   For you to stand straight
   For you to hold your head high.

Step by Step

We walked together
   For you to gather strength
   For you to gain confidence
   For you to fathom a future bright
   For you to stand to apart upright

Higher the Flight

You rose to heights
   For you to shine
   For you to soothe pain
   For you to gain
   For you to reign.

Tribute to my Children

I planted a sapling    In my garden Tended it watered it    Patted it pampered it Expecting it to bloom    It grew but not tall It grew but did not bloom. The weeds around    Hindered it tampered it Frightened it crumpled it    Crushed it destroyed it. My folds could never    Help it to bloom Every support at its fall    stiffened its wing It failed to fly. Uproot Yes! Re-plantation    Strengthened its wing    Alone it struggled    To fly high above the clouds    To swim in deep sea    To fight the deadly    To stand alone apart    To speak for its right    To set herself on path    To progress To strive. Bloom my child Shine my child Grow my child Let my lamp dimly    Lit for thy Let every step forward    Make it glow Glow glow glow until    It sets to sparkle World around.

DAWN TO DUSK

Dawn to Dusk    Struggle to glow       Hurt not         Blow not. What others are due      Got not what    you opt for   Grieve no  On what    Others are     Crowned to For they thus crowned     Are in for             What Earth was                                                                     To HERCULES.
