It’s been a year since you left,
I miss you Papa!
When I want to share something amusing to have a hearty laugh with you,
I miss you Papa!
When I am unwell, and want to feel the healing touch of your hand on my forehead,
I miss you Papa!
Whenever I wear something new and wait to hear a compliment from you,
I miss you Papa!
When I achieve something and expect a congratulations from you,
I miss you Papa!
When I feel like discussing various things with you,like we used to do,
I miss you Papa!
Every day,and on every special occasion,be it birthdays,anniversaries or festivals,
I miss you Papa!
Above all,when I want to feel like ‘Daddy’s little girl’,
I miss you the most Papa!
For I know,I will never be able to feel like this again!

About the poem: Five years ago,in the month of October, my father left for his heavenly abode, creating a void in our lives.His demise had a profound effect on me.Amongst his children,I was the one who spent maximum amount of time with him.
He was a very compassionate,loving and empathetic person with a heart of gold.A true philosopher,at the same time a person who loved life-good food and fashionable clothes,who believed in living life king size.
A scientific person,not only being a medical doctor,but who also had interest in astrology,palmistry and spirituality.A kid at heart,he gave the best of life to his kids.This poem is a tribute to my Dad which I wrote, after a year of his demise.Missing and remembering him today and everyday.
Soulful Poesy 
Each and every single word is so touchy …. Can connect so well. Our super hero :*
