~THE FATHER~

I had lost him being apart, lonesome in London, thousands of miles away from Jessore, the soil that had let him rest there forever or in another dimension to fly high…! Abbu, I do believe in those spiritual clues stated in the holy script of the Master of Universe. So, see you soon right there in the blue… Let it be…!
I wish you’re here, here next to me, I’m missin’ you so…so desperately
But lately I feel like you felt and I want you to see how I’m missin’ you..
I wish to calling you by all the names I missed to, over again, even once only…
Dear, ‘Baba’, ‘Papa’ O’ ‘Daddy’… I’m missin’ you so…so desperately…
Your only son as you always used to address by calling “Shishir Babu”…

My dear Father,
I wished you a safe journey
Being Millions of miles away,
Three years from now on this very day…
I miss you every night and everyday…
I still wish you a safe journey…
My dear Father…
Someday I laughed inside
When you told me, truly
You are confused about directions
When you are out of Jessore*
Today I cry inside
How it’s possible for you
To make such a long Journey?
My dear Father,
Once you fired your rifle resting it
On my nine years old shoulder
aiming a dove with a sharp aim,
I was horrified with earlocking sound
You encouraged me to be a man like you…
My dear Father,
I still drive your T5 Vespa
Still the same Glittery Deep silver color,
You taught me to drive it smooth
When I made a minor accident
Still I reduce the speed when I ear you saying
“Always undercontrol, my son”
And you say it just sitting behind me…
My dear Father
Wherever you are, you are here,
Right here with me,
I ask advices from you, precisely
You are still my light-house;
Must I see you someday,
Need to tell so many things that remains untold…
I’m getting closer to you.. day by day …
“Me lord, take the best care of my Father
As he would take the ever best care of me…”
Tears … .. .
