Circle of life

This picture is of my third birthday. Lots of memories are associated with it and more than anything else it reminds me of an old reel camera which these days is placed in drawer of my store.

On my this birthday

When we all sit together

Gentle reminder,

Of cherishing a moment

That family made special.

Birthdays are different now but parents know how to make them special. Yesterday, my mother baked this cake for me.
