A word of Thanks


Two words, two jewels

With wealth unbound by rules

This is what I want to say to you

For all that you have done, thank you.


Thank you mother, for raising me right

Motivating me to touch the light

Without you, I'd be nothing

For your gaze and words, ever so loving

For all that, I can only give you

Two words, thank you.


Thank you father, for setting me straight,

For forming me, speech to gait

You are my molder, and I am your child,

I am your student, and you're the tough guide.

And for turning my skies from gray to blue

All I can give is a Thank You.


Thank you brother for the quarrels and fights,

But know still, I won't bow to your might,

You are my tutor, teach me all you know

And stand back as I grow and grow.

And for being the not-wished-for boon

All I can offer is a Thank You.


Dear friend, you stood by my side

When I laughed, raged or cried

And for that lovely support, bless your heart

We're a whole together, alone we're parts

I guess this is my cue

To hug you and say Thank You.


And god, my life and grace

From above, your moderating gaze

And for the life you granted

And the balance that never slanted

A prayer is seen fit, for debts that are due

A prayer of love and Thank you.


And I almost forgot you, dear

Without you I wouldn't be here

Your name, your form, your face is mine,

I live and walk on your line

And for you, myself, a small thank you

Is not enough to express my eternal gratitude.
