Father of the Bride

And it broke the silence and the thrill...
your wail loud and shrill!
My life's most melodious sound...
music of heaven on this ground!
Its a new life for me rather,
Yes! am now a father!!
Still remeber that first vision...
to have a look was my pronto mission.
The nurse said,'Its a girl.'
Yes! I have earned my precious pearl!!
Promised to give the impossibles a try,
to ensure that this was your last cry.
Your first step and the first word you spoke...
your gloom when your first toy broke...
the days we used to play...
the beautiful castle you made of clay...
your grand birthday treats...
those little pranks and naughty feats...
all these memories refuse to drain,
off this old and agening brain.
Today, you suddenly say you have grown!!
Has become a tree, the seed yesterday sown!
which with pristine love and care did I water.
Yes! you have grown, my dear daughter!!!
Its time for you to leave my carriage;
begins a new journey called marriage.
Its a new world and a new life...
you are no longer a daughter, but a wife.
Here is the man whom you chose,
holding you like the dearest rose!
You are to go a distant mile.
I stand here with the tear of smile.
With head high and gleaming pride,
I say," I am the father of the Bride".
