“Anand” – A Father So Divine

---

On a distant branch, a bird’s nest so small,
Anand, my father, stands proud and tall,

Beneath the scorching sun, the tree is ablaze,
But his shadow cools, a sheltering gaze.

He hungers, yet his soul’s so full,
In his presence, my heart feels whole.

Short are the nights, but in each dream,
Anand’s light shines, a radiant beam.

Through every storm, he stands so strong,
Cool as ice, though tested long.

“My child,” he asks, “how do you feel?
For I am all your ‘Suraj’, a force so real.”

And so I say, with heart and mind, Anand, my father, so divine.
In every form, a father’s love,
A gift from heaven, sent from above.
