SOLITUDE

To live all by myself was almost a forced decision .....yes, now I am neighbour to my own family . I like my new found life...it is so much easier ....but it is not so for many....what about the old lady who lives next door?...shunned by her family ....she awaits her final moments...so this one is for you DADI ..as I lovingly address her.....
                
               I, often see her
               beside her partly drawn casement,
               immersed in thoughts of life and death.

               A stubborn time, will not let her quit,
               will not let her drop her withered old skin.

              She is in grips of immense pain...
              To struggle solitude is in vain.

               She wants the gathered multitude  
               and its din (around her).

              At war, with life itself
              every breath , she strives in vain.

              But each breath did weaker grow
              till it falls before its DEATHLESS FOE.....
