Dr. Ramesh Kumar Gupta
Baby! nine months old
To laugh and sight but graced
Bore the pangs of uncured wound
parents mov’d for her cure
But in vain-Baby no more.
Yet, your tender and lovely face
Moves in the mind, never omits
The moment which you passed
In my lap, your smiling face
Moves in the mind, never omits
The moment which you passed
In my lap, your smiling face
left a scar-
a residue keepsake
your eyelid’s open appears
A flitting soul, a phantom face
Everything unreal and transitory
Sound sleep under the dark terrain
Now no rapport with earthly beings
A farewell to you; though the change’s on.
(This touching poem is a spontaneous outpouring of the soul-a personal tragedy                                                                                                                                         -Ed.)
