Dearest Arjun,
A much better person you're already
than I was your age
Way more resolved,
much responsible
than I'd have dreamed for myself
Just one thing you ought
never let yourself forget-
there are few regrets greater than
not realising one's potential
and few tragedies
as oft repeated
as not knowing
what you could have become
had you only tried
and given your best
Neither to earn moolah in millions
nor to outshine the rest
But to find your calling
and be able to see your highest
through each trial and travail
And touch as many lives
in the course of your days
filling each that you meet
with hope and zest
that my son is true success
I wish you all the best
for you're capable of
more than you think
Just give your abilities
a chance to surface
and take you beyond the firmament
where wings can't wait
