Abandoned To Cherished.... Poem by Neha Aradhye

When I was a kid,
nobody to protect me, mentor me...(father)
nobody to teach the values & cultures to me...
nobody to cushion me from anybody putting me down..
nobody to tell bedtime stories...
nobody to take care of me...
loads of hurdles came my way,
had to figure them out on my own.....

A long time later,
I came across a chain of relations...
gave me abundant love, mansion of affection.....
thank god for awarding me such a wonderful family,
who are dear, kind, tender and embraced me selflessly...
