Sonnet: Father’s Day

Today is Father’s Day in India; Not many know about this lovely day! How many wifes did greet their husbands, say? Neither did children of Himalaya! A father labors hard for family; Sometimes, he works extra-time to earn more; Some mothers waste money in ways silly; There isn’t a soul for him, to open door! A father has problems in his work-place; His span of life is shortened due to stress; Despite his strife, he puts a ‘happy’ face; Life does not treat him fairly or caress! A father gives joy, making life less grim! ’Tis sad a life for members without him. 'Let the world then celebrate 'Father's day' In a splendid and most joyous a way! '
