Parents stop being parents Try being human more Let your children know You too err You are just like them You are not a god You too can laugh and fight Sing and dance with them Your life is life Not to be taken for granted Show your attitude Show your heart to them Not with tears But being shelfish little Why show tears! When they are found dramatic Be smart to live in the world A world of being practical As they are Let them know You too have dreams and desires Stop being mom and dad everytime Give a space around with no tags Grow with them as they grow Dare not use the word sacrifice They haven't told you to do so Then why stand on the altar And claim you have done it for them They are grown ups It's time to stop being parents Let the ship sail in high tides While being an anchor for them Don't fear of being alone Start being as you were Before being parents Just for once say and feel "Love you zindagi" Throughout life you will feel Love for life And your child will love you Wishing to be with you again and again Kalpana's imagination
