Good bye my daughter

Good bye my lovely and dear daughter You will be leaving behind grief and no laughter You were so beautiful and very much sought after You were engaged in lavish style with grand dinner It was great to be part of your wedding ceremony My eyes were getting wet intermittently but not seen by many I was overjoyed and much excited with the grand occasion It was going to be opening of new bond and relation The idea itself hurt me from within as if cut by knife She will be flown many miles away to be called somebody’s wife The though itself reminded me of the traditional custom Where daughter has to be given farewell like stardom The day was awaited since long and discussed Full preparation was on for not a single thing to be missed It was as if do or die battle for no let up in preparation It was bringing tears in my eyes at slight reminder of separation She had come up as very much loved child We were very much considerate and kind We were getting nervous if she was not found We will run all over for search and see all around She was naughty but very much wise She will take enough care not to make any surprise We were not accustomed to her absence We would love her to be before us in al the sense Baby child is always given top importance It is because she has to live company at once She won’t stay with us for any longer She will leave us behind as stranger We did not notice the passing of time so quickly She had attained womanhood and was to be married immediately Even though she had picked life partner from her own circle We had no other choice but give approval for being very practical Nothing seemed to be unusual or strange We were to go for it and arrange She was to be given descent reception We all waited for it with open options It was giving joy and at the same times some grief She was to live with very good family and much to our relief It was not the concern at all but only her absence We were to miss her face in everybody’s presence I could not cry in open but felt at heart I was grieving deeply and was likely to start I feared some tears may drop on the ground It will hurt daughter deeply if she ever found I did not cry till the last I broke down when her plane disappeared very fast The isolator days were to be the only friends Though it was with mixed feelings at the end
