On the day when you see us

old, weak and weary….

Have patience and try to understand us….

 

If we get dirty while eating .. and …

If we can not dress on our own …

 

Please bear with us and remember the times

We spent feeding you and dressing you up….

 

2

 

When we speak to you,

We repeat the same things over and over again…

Do not interrupt us … Listen to us..

 

When you were small, we had to read the same story

A thousand and one times until you went to sleep….

 

3

 

When we do not want to have a shower…

Neither shame us ...  nor scold us..

 

Remember when we had to chase you with your

Thousand excuses to get you to the shower …

 

4

 

When you see our ignorance

Of new technologies ….

 

Help us navigate our way through

This worldwide web

 

We taught you to do so many things

To eat the right food

To dress appropriately

To fight for your rights

 

5

 

When at some moments, we lose the memory or the thread of

Our conversation … Let us have the necessary time to remember ..

Do not become nervous ..

 

As the most important thing is not our Conversation

But simply to be with you and to have you listening to us.

 

6

 

If we even do not feel like eating, do not force us

We know well when we need to and when not to eat

 

When our tired legs give way

And do not allow us to walk without a cane

 

Lend us your helping hand the same way we did

When you tried your first faltering steps

 

7

 

And when someday, we say to you

That we do not want to live anymore

That we want to die

 

Do not get angry

For One Day, you’ll understand

 

8

 

Someday you realize that despite our mistakes

We always wanted the best for you

And we tried to prepare the way for you

 

You must not feel sad, angry or ashamed

For having us near you.

Instead try to understand us

An help us like we did when you were young

 

9

 

Help us to walk

Help us to live the rest of our life

With Love and Dignity

 

We will pay for you

With a smile and

By the immense love we have always had

For you in our hearts

 

We love you, Child

Mom and Dad

Great. Mr. Suryanarayana, it has touched and moved me, i think we parents should be more practical than emotional, now everybody has become wise and busy? one is fortunate, if he can get a spouse at least beside him in his old/painful days. It is "yugadharma"
good content, thanks for referral,

Everyone need to care for their parents in old age but most of the time children don't have time for them. A real pity...
