I sit by the window side, starring at the pouring rains today and I realize I have lived past trough all those rain showers that I have shared with you, Dad.

I still remember the times when my father scolded me to go out in rains so that I don’t catch up cold, but every night I saw him come home from work all soaked up. The times when he forbid me from going out in steamy hot afternoons while he himself worked each day, each afternoon, in that same weather. Often, we look at our fathers and realize what sacrifices they have done for us, what we do not realize so often is they are our fathers and all they need is a few happy times with us. Our smiles and our time is what means to them a world full of happiness and bliss. Let’s get up today, this father’s day and share some moments of joy with our dads. Let’s make smile and laugh their hearts out. Let’s show our love to the one who has taught us what love is.

There have always been legends of fathers shaking up the whole world and far for their children. What always remains unnoticed is each and every father crosses all his thresholds for his children. He has the most eternal love that can ever exist and moreover, no matter how mischievous we become not even a drop of affection is lost from his ocean of love. I doubt if there is something more divine than a father’s love in all the three worlds.

A father is always witnessed to play various roles in a child’s life. He is the best stuntman, best support system, best teacher, best mentor, best storyteller, best friend and whatnot. The words will fall short to list and describe is roles. What is more surprising is he doesn’t fail or fall short in any of them even for a minute or even a second. A supporting role of my father is what delights me the most. I cannot him thank him enough for always being the supporter of my dreams and choices.

Who needs a prince, when I have my knight in shining a shining armour.

I have always believed in the above statement as if it was some shooting star and I was making a wish. Up until now, fathers are the first and the best mentors in a child’s life. All those lessons and teachings, they have intricate on us, will stay with us forever and more. The superhero, the partner in crime and the one whose shoes we always try to wear. There are infinite roles he plays but cannot be thanked enough.

No poetic lines can explain enough the ecstasy of our hearts for fathers, but no better medium then poems can be used to do the same.

Holding hands, He strews me through the darkness, Divine strands, Were all what his love caught into me and Through his sight, My eyes vision the starry skies. For all? I have often wondered what a dream is? Fairies and fantasies? Or scary nightmares? With ghosts and abandoned glooms? It was him; Who introduced me to a whole new weary world of dreams. Though fantasies but you can live in, Cannot be defined but can be infinitely definite. Untouched wishes that you can outgrow within. These are only; Hopes, In which you can astonish your grins!

Fathers have always been the most precious jewels of our life and they will always remain so forever. Their stunning spark has enlightened us for ages and their love has drained into our veins.

Step by step, toe on the toe, hands beholden tight, keeping in balance upright, this game went on with you and it still feels like yesterday. Daddy, I will always be unquenched with your love. From moulding me appeased and pouring your purity into me. My eyes now shine with you in them every second. Watching my favourite cartoons, I lived in my fantasy land. Flying with Batman, jumping with Spiderman; sometimes it was the Power puff girls or sometimes Popeye, the sailor man. Dragon tales, Cinderella, Winx and fairies, all I have lived in; But in my fantasy world.

All these years my real-world hero mesmerizing me through, it was you!

My Dad! My Superhero!
