a poem for my grandpa

This is the poem I wrote for my Grandpa’s 80th birthday-

In Tamil “Grandpa” is known as “Thatha”

I give you this poem right in time (not late)
I want you to celebrate,
This birth date.

I think of you
Every time it’s true
I’m so glad
My Grandad
Is you!

You are so patient and kind,
I would never, ever find
Someone like you
To teach me through
This way of life

You are like my king
As you bring
Us all joy.
You let in the light
And you bet
You are always right!



THATHA, IT’S REALLY, REALLY TRUE

I LOVE YOU
