56. PROUD OF MY FATHER . HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU .
A dynamite of blazing optimism as the steps tread resolutely upon hapless floor ,
Majestic bristles of grey engulfing a handsomely robust jawline ,
Raw bundle of energy compounded with fearless streaks of adventure to clamber the
mountain,
An unparalleled commitment to each project undertaken ; to take it to an honest
success ,
A desire to excel in whatever stage life offered ; without the tiniest of enviousness
towards others who were better off ,
Thorough professionalism which never got office work to home ; relishing the verdant landscapes of the lawn with a rejuvenating stroll,
A flamboyant charmer with unmatched talking skills ; that converted the most dogmatic No into a mesmerizing Yes ,
Sheer astuteness compounded with an unbiased desire to make it independently ;
evolving a lavish civilization from threadbare scratch,
Rustic truth which earned hostile foes at occasions more than friends ; but which
culminated into royally satisfying victory at the end ,
Profound love for the environment and wildlife ; flourishing with mother nature in its lap ; without asserting the slightest of spurious power or might ,
A loyalty to spouse whose examples were cited to household’s in strife ; as an
outstanding human saga of real life conviction , faith , understanding and forbearance ,
Hailed as the Supremo of Denim in our very own Manchester of Textiles; Ahmedabad ,
Most importantly a faith in God and his holy messengers which gave him his own
inimitable position on mortal earth ; as he happily jostled in his freshly constructed
Kingsized farmhouse ,
The man turns 59 years today by the grace of God .
And though I have no regrets of not following his marketing prowess and write Poetry instead . I am still proud to have him as my Father .
Here’s wishing you Daddy a Happy Birthday for today , this gloriously enthralling 25th July , 2009
