WHAT I LEARNT FROM YOU?

I  would be concerned

For your life and education

Through your untroubled ways of growing up,

You would teach me pleasure lies in learning not rewards.

I would Get tired

Unable to accomplish all my aims

Through your infinite chase to snatch a toy from your sister

You would teach me never -ending energy.

I would be outraged

At my own imperfection

Through the chuckle that you gave after spilling

You would teach me how to laugh at it.

I would Cry

When anything messed up

Through your warm hug

You would teach me friendship.

I would worry

About being able to take care of you

Through your giggle when you fell from stairs

You taught me to be carefree.

I would be anxious

To be successful

Through your smile on finding a small bead

You would teach me genuine victory.

I would sulk

When things went wrong

Through your incessant effort to get the puzzle right

You would teach me never to give up.

I would be hurt

Because I had a sense of self

Through your simplicity to let off your fights

You would teach me forgiveness.

I would be finicky

About being up systematised

Through your grin in the worst of chaos

You would teach me how to enjoy.

I would be meticulous

How to speak soberly and sensibly,

Through your screaming everytime you won a game

You would teach me how to have fun.

I would emphasise

How you should be strong

Through your warm delightful ways

You would teach me how to melt my heart.

I would preach

How to be thoughtful for your loved ones

Through your unparalleled affection for me

You would teach me how to love.
