A Poem for Him
Since we cosigned in the race of this life cycle,
We have been two wheels of the same bicycle.
You lead me through the seven set circles,
Each has been conjured with many miracles.
The loyalty and longing intertwine hearts,
The routines and the duties tug us apart.
Your foot on the brake and steady navigation,
have guided our lives without deviation.
In life’s uphill journey, I follow when you roll,
If you slip into reverse, I cruise and control.
The push and pull, check and balance,
A keen, kind critique brings best out of me.
A good spouse, a great father and a superb grandfather,
I hope and wish the ride goes far and farther.
