A busy lawyerA lovely fatherA caring grandpaAn amazing writer!
I learned to walkHolding your fingers!I started to writeWith your blessings!
You made me realizeThe power of words!You helped me to dreamThe world of verse!
For every question,You’d an answer.For each step,I’d your support!
Quietly and calmlyYou left the world,With many doubtsStill unanswered…!
(My grandfather MCV Bhattathiripad died exactly five years back. He was my guide and inspiration. My words have become powerless while writing about him as he was the one who corrected me when I started to write in my childhood days. Even today, I miss his care and love. Hope he reads this tribute and blesses me from the heaven.)
