SOMETHING I LOOK AT-427
BY- SMRUTI RANJAN MOHANTY

A Father

One who loves you
unconditionally — is your father.
One who toils from dawn to dusk so you may live in comfort — is your father.
One who forgets his own needs and seeks the whole world for you — is your father.
One who hides his sweat and tears, yet appears a superman to you — is your father.
One who bears all burdens, absorbs your worries, and still keeps you smiling — is your father.
One who endures your indifference and harsh words as you grow — is your father.
One so immersed in raising you that he forgets he has a life of his own — is your father.

A father remains a father till his last breath,
While the priorities of a son keep changing.
