Your 2 merciful eyes,
On one fateful day.
Were forced to shut
In a very painful way.

Neither by God’s will,
Nor that was your Wish.
But just to a human’s need
Utterly Selfish.

Someone wanted to escape
Standing embarrassed,
That he resorted to
Hunt you instead.

Tell me darling!
What all were running in your mind that Day?
Did you want to play a certain game?
Or share an innocent secret with your best friend?
Were you planning to go somewhere over the weekend?
Only such small desires should have filled your mind – beginning to end.

My heart goes out to your mother,
Who would be grieving deeply until now,
Not sure if you were naughty or nice;
But, she is sure to be missing you every then and now.
Whether you were a student so smart or kind of bad,
For having parted with you this way, your teachers would surely be sad.

I have a daughter, 7 in age too,
Tender and sweet, almost just like you!
Sometimes she gets on my nerves;
Unintentionally, of course!
And ends up on the other side,
Which I later always remorse.

At such instances she is such a pain.
But having known you, has put me to shame.
I’ve at times Shouted at her and asked her to stay quiet.
After all, she’s at least still in my sight.
Jumping, crying, fighting and complaining,
Now, I love her more, along with her endless mischiefs.

I do not know in how many more heavy hearts
Your currently reside,
May our souls always stay connected,
Side-by-side.

Rest in peace little angel!
Loads of love from a mother!!
