Separation
Sitting in the Community Hall of the multistorey building
Clad in white robes-the mourners,relatives,friends,neighbours,friends
Memories of the crimson scalding pyre
Lurking in tired minds
The meaning of Love.. togetherness
Tears of loved ones
Dried on faded cheeks
Pangs of separation
Dreams of pleasurable times-Happy times
The fun,the frolic,the imprints left behind
Alas ! the Photographs,the videos..
Life - The most precious treasure
God has given with the Chemists pipette
Now lies in the earthen urn
On the cold red velvet
