Davis Varghese Poet Rhyme

!Dad!

Underrated man,
Unappreciated man!
That’s what you are,
My dear Father!

Growing up,
The plates were full,
The bills were paid,
The beds were laid,
And I had fun.

Saw my mother,
Cook and tend,
And I thought,
You only had fun.

No, you didn't,
Now I know.
You worked hard,
You worked stressed,
To build a legacy,
For our family.

I had it easy,
cos' you made it easy,
Without a whine, without a cry,
Nev'r saw those tears,
But only a smile,



So rare,
Measured and fair.

I got a life,
Cos' of mother,
But I lived a life,
Cos' of you.

My bright future,
The fruit of your labor,
The unsung work,
That you have done,
Has held us all,
Steadfast and one.

In your boots, now I know,
With this ode, I plan to show,
That you, my good ol' father,
Is my rock n' hero,
 for'evr!
