To Dad on his birthday

It's twenty fifth of May
Alas, you're miles away from me

flash back of mosaic memories 
when i was in your sight
brings back scents of home 
exuding  like curry
from mom's kitchen
as you serenade her
with songs she used to sing 
to make me sleep on rainy eve.

Oh Dad, with gratitude 
on your birthday 
this rouge roses I send,
tied with a rainbow 
that will never end.
