On his hands

On his hands

Hope I was a kid forever

On my dad’s hand.

Who would get me everything I want,

Making me laugh, showing the growing teeth.

Hope I was a kid forever.

Away from world’s mess

Where nothing could hurt or make me cry.

Happily enjoying under his shelter,

None other than me, for him matters.

Walking and running around his legs,

I wonder how tall he is !

Hope I was a kid forever.

Making him do what I want,

From ploughing to building house,

He runs behind me,

Never says no and stands beside me.

Planting and watering the plants,

I enjoyed it grow.

Hope I was a kid forever.

I was the ruler of all,

The little princess forever in his arms.

My joy was limitless,

When I see things from his shoulder,

Happily touring for hours.

Hope I was a kid forever.

Hearing and admiring his stories,

For all I know, he planted thoughts in my mind, Listening to them,

I slowly close my eyes.

He made me smile even when I was asleep.

Hope I was a kid forever in his hands.
