a lady in a blue bodered saree

a live statue of dignity and solidarity

who had love for the unwanted,the poor and the discarded.

showed them the real taste of life

but alas

no more does that statue possess any flight

the livliness is gone...lost forever

and here we are

left with just those memories of love and care

but we all are here

and shall be here

in one form or the other

can't we discover that old mother

who sleeps deep inside each one of us
