My parents breathed life into me <br />And I breathed my first witnessed by Thee. <br />Mama, my eyes saw you first, <br />And felt like I quenched my thirst. <br />I thanked Him for sending me on a beautiful journey, <br />But prepared myself to face the phases like Neem and Honey. <br />When you picked me first on your lap, <br />I felt as if I am on feathers of satisfaction taking nap. <br /> <br />Then I saw you dad, <br />And again thanked Him for making me your lad. <br />Your first sight upon me, <br />Made me feel I was blessed by Thee. <br /> <br />Though I admire Him the most, <br />But, I apologize, coz I snatched His post. <br />For me, my parents are no one, <br />But omnipotent almighty of Heaven. <br /> <br />Mama, I remember when you cried for me, <br />And I regret for every such happening. <br />Papa, you slogged day and night for me, <br />To provide me food, education and clothing. <br />I know I cannot pay your debt, <br />But to prove my worth, I will try my best. <br /> <br />I pray to have same parents in each and every birth of mine, <br />To motivate, support and inspire me in the world so elephantine.<br /><br />Akash Agrawal<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/my-parents-my-god/
