My Paterfamilias

I was humbly and hungrily

Waiting for a day like this.

To see joy sparkling everywhere

In my heart.

And never thought of being angry

For waiting too long

For a day like this.

I was always thirsty

To drink the cup of joy

Fed by my pater.

I was always longing to have joy,

Boldly written in capital letters

And glued to my heart

With the color of joy . . .

By my pater.

There I have today,

That will always give me a happy tomorrow.

For I have been fed to the fullest,

By the man

That never missed any chance,

To break an egg

And make me a being,

In the womb of my carrier.

Thank you Dad!

For this everlasting day of joy.
