"unhandy" poems
Though I am not related to you,
Hardly ever I felt this in your warmth,
Actually your care is so fatherly,
Not once did I feel unhandy with you,
Kindness is imbued in your nature.
You never lost your cool, and,
Organized weekly lab meetings,
Understanding all the workers.
Docile I had been so much,
Ready me for thesis you did.
Most kind of all my teachers,
On advising and enlightening,
Homely atmosphere you provide,
Always there holding your cool,
Not failing to lift our spirits,
Thinking about you I am,
Your wisdom is full of light.

Soft
but still my loft.
You aren't rough
and tough
inherently-
but you can be.
Not for me only, you care
but for four you despair.
In this tournament of juggling
no one knew you were struggling.
How can you be so gentle
when the world treats you like a rental?
This makes me cry.
A heart so grand must never die.
I had a glimpse of uphill
shattered by your will.
I only knew something was wrong
'cause your stubble was a little long.
I peeked 'round the corner.
You didn't notice me- your daughter.
Your face was taught with wretched thoughts
but relaxed into love when I got caught.
You were trapped in your minds corner
where -no longer- it was a little warmer
The clouds looked like they hadn't been washed in a while.
But you still smiled.
When you say you admire another
for their unique kind of thunder-
I try to unblind you-
see: Only you can turn the sky cove blue
after a hurricane Sandy
makes my life feel unhandy.
You never ask if I Love you
cuz' you know I simply do.
I finally know why you're so rad-
cuz' you're sent from above, Dad.
