MY FATHER, MY KNIGHT
Diana Kamyabizadeh
On this day of your birth, my dearest father of the age,
In April’s arms, Farvardin 15th, blessings are on stage,
A moment I took, pondered your gentle graces,
Pedare khoobe man, Behtarin babaye Donya, baba Janam,
Your kindness, it dwells everywhere.
Every morning, as I woke, readying for school,
You equip me with almonds and walnuts of love,
All the nutrients I need to in order to grow,
Cashews of care tucked in my pocket, a comforting sight.
You taught me to ride, to quell my fears,
With you by my side, no room for tears.
Together we watched thrillers, fear not at all, why shall I?
For you were there, my father, my knight.
In Mehrshahr, where we reside,
The winter’s chill defied by your warm breath.
Strong, brave, courageous, as a father stands,
When I was studying, you kept the world warm and silent.
Nothing was distracting, it was me and my books,
You paid tutors to come home, help me more,
When I fell behind, no blame on my scores.
No anger, ever enticed, in your gaze,
In your presence, I just amaze.
The best chef, the world has seen,
Your, spaghetti, macaroni, rare cuisine,
Baghali Ghatogh, Lahijan’s yummiest delight.
God bless you, dad, my world, my light.
I tell mom when she calls, our bond so tight,
At midnight, in prayer, I speak to divine’s might,
He knows all, in His wisdom, He’ll intertwine.
God bless you, Dad, my hero, my guide,
In high school now, with you by my side.
Mother agrees, holds you in high esteem,
you are a good man, Dad, in every heart, you gleam.
Your daughter, Diana, in her sweet sixteen,
Wrote this poem for you, a love-filled scene.
Please treasure this gift, though tiny it may seem,
Words from my beating heart, flowing like a stream.
