Toddler Turning Three

Turning three in  British land

Born in India the motherland

        your infancy was a wonderland.                           

Entered the world in peak of pandemic

When the pall of gloom was so horrific

For us it was full of anxiety and panic

Your arrival was gracefully fantastic.

 

From lying in the crib to wiggling limbs

Tummy to side and always ready to roll

Flopping, crouching to bunny hopping doll.

Sighted you roll, sit, crawl and walk

Babbling with Da Da  Ta Ta words alike

Just born to baby to infant to toddler

              Now a  tiny kid poised for a preschooler.                      

 

Staying thousands of miles away

Can’t be with you on this special day

To wish, Video call is the only way

 Virtual world has taken sway

 Celebration of thee Birthday

The event for us is a  virtual reality

 Looking  for   an augmented reality.
