the last note of melody
It was time for him to let go of her,
of the soul who always came to his aid when he alone did suffer,
he reminisced of how she entered his life as an answer to his prayer
of how proud a dad he was,when he saw that she was no quitter but a trier
she spelled joy to him when after a long day she came running into his big arms
she weighed so light sitting on his broad shoulders of responsibility as they traveled through huge farms
the adamant li'l girl,it was only to his words that she always had heeded,
they bonded in the twilight of silence and spoke only when words were needed
now he tried hard to make his tears go unnoticed but given his light blue eyes,they wouldnt let that happen,
and so he sat there alone,digging old memories, making his feelings re open
he regretted the days when he upset her by not answering her questions timely,
he wished he could show her of all the days he stood there,caring silently
he wondered if that tough outer shell was even worth it just because he was a man?
he missed showing his softer side publicly to her which her mother always could and can ..
he questioned to his inner reflections if sending her off was even that compulsory ?
he silently prayed that the man he chose for her was ideal and stood for all that was,
in a man, necessary .
He was a man who was at loss of words only because he spoke through his heart not tongue
he sat there in the corner with the girl he called his daughter and to themselves , for one last time ,they heart-fully sung ....

I think this what every father feels when he see's his precious little daughter all grown up and getting married! he has so many things he wants to tell her but doesn't know how!
