Parents – The Poem

Ask yourself a question today,
Whatever you do the whole day,
Who do you do it for?
For that special one?
For your posterity?
Well, these are obvious choices,
Now try looking slightly beneath the surface,
Notice anything?
If not,
Just gaze into the mirror for a second,
Look at yourself,
All tall and grown up,
Surprised, eh?
Now think about a couple if you can,
Remember who raised you up,
Probably the most beautiful couple in the world for you,
Ever thought of being grateful to them,
Nah?
Then this is the right time to show your gratitude,
Spare a moment,
Thank them for all they did for you and are doing for you till today,
Praise the lord,
And promise the Almighty,
To make them proud one day,
Anyhow,
Through legitimate means,
No matter what sacrifices you have to make
And what dust you have to rake.
