Happy Birthday, Dad

Posted by Prashanth M (Bangalore, India) on 15 November 2006 in People & Portrait and Portfolio.

I still remember the day, you taught me addition.
I still remember the days, you used to take us out for morning walks.
I still remember the days, you narrated stories of your childhood.
I still rememebr the days, we spent watching stars & listening to different stories of the stars & galaxies from you.
I still rememebr the day, you had a fractured hand, you smiled said its nothing.
I still rememebr the day, when my sister got married and went her new home. And the way you wandered around in the house like a kid who is searching for his mother.
I still rememebr many more such days spent with you, learning to live.
Thanks for all the sacrifices you made, for me & my sister to be here in this present positions today.

63 years. Wish you many many Happy returns of the day, Dad.

This was taken way back in 2004, by my sister. Thats me and my Dad in the frame.

Want to know what i feel when looking at u'r picture? u'r dad stnding at the big stone, hands over the hip, shows how big n powerful he is. u standing on small stone n higher shows that u'r trying to overtake his knowledge n power. but he would never let u to do that..but I like the connection between the 2 object..
