MEMOIR
Many days have passed since I woke up
From the snooze at window seat of the local train
It has been many days since I lay down on moist grass
Watching the brightening eastern sky
It was many days ago that I got drenched
In the starlight of no moon night
It was long time back that I cleared my way
From the shrubs of the hill top
It has been long since I tried
To gather the moon rays entering my bedroom
It was distant past that I got titillated
In the sprinkles of old film songs
It is long time since I had
Tantalizing drink session with my friends
It has been quite some time since I lost hundreds of rupees
Playing three cards with long lost friends
For months I had no heated arguments
With my friends over the performance of a film actor
Many days have passed since I opened my heart out
and scribbled on a blank paper
I wonder whether the stranglehold of Covid-19, the world over
Has blunted my sensitive heart beats
Or the news of the deaths of known and adored persons
Has blinded the sight of my inmost mind and made me myopic
