A Pravasi Tale


Never the maestro of his
Own destiny, destined by fate and love.

Hearts with care and concern,
Ridden with memories and nostalgia.
Dreams ,distress, hopes and
Diseases befriended them.
Souls with tired words.
Boring sights with signs
Of wear and tear.

                                                                           
His visit to family brings
Glimpses of glimmers,
Returns with bagful of flowers
And thorns in heart.

Feelings unmatched, faith unrivaled,
Soul in disguise, heart never let
Them befallen. Prayers mountain,
Hope unrealistic, fingers crossed,
Happiness shared, joy laughed out,
Distress surrenders, only the baby smile
And born prayers share their sleep.
