Terrible Thursday

Papa,come home soon..

Little girl cried ,

Bidding goodbye teary-eyed,

Yes Beta,Papa will come soon ..

With a big box of chocolates….

*****

He did come home soon

Wrapped in tricolour ….

When world celebrated love

She lost her beloved …

She lost her warrior

Not in an alien land,

But in the mother land

Unarmed and unprepared..

When the world celebrated in red

The martyr’s blood covered the soil red

When the world exchanged hearts

Nation lost another braveheart ..

PS: On 14 th Febuary , 44 brave CRPF jawans lost their lives in a suicide terror attack in Kashmir. A salute to all the bravehearts who gave their today for our tommorrow.
