MISSING YOU, AZHER
My beloved son Azher,
It's been 40 years since I felt the warmth of your tiny palm wrapped around my finger.
Your mom feels cosy even today when she recalls you cuddling up beside her on the hospital bed.
Your brothers have never seen you but they have grown up finding their "Azher Bhaiya" as they fondly refer to you, at their side towering over them as a Big Brother, encouraging them to surge forward when they get slow, motivating them to get up whenever they fall, laughing with them at their pranks, howling with them in their triumphs, and scowling at them when you find them stepping out of line! In fact, your niece and nephew know about you!
But, come 10th of February, our hearts flutter with mixed feelings of joy and sadness when we talk every year about the number of candles we would have put on your Birthday cake! When the day passes away, we sink into solemn moods, as we know that 12th February is just two days away, when you left us to go back amongst the angels.
We know that the same God who created the oceans, the mountains, and the galaxies, looked at you in the heavens and thought that the world needed one of you too, and He chose to send you into our lives. But then, He missed you so much that He decided to have you back amongst the angels around Him.
It's that thought, that He loves you more than we do, which helps us to console ourselves and handle the grief of your absence.
Until we meet again on the other side, my son, this is your “Pappa”, as your brothers and their wives address me, wishing you on behalf of all of us at home, a very Happy Birthday!
Love,
Pappa
