(This is my reaction to a poem titled ”Goodbye”
by my niece Tmt. Meena Suresh. Her poem is annexed)
Goodbye, say it or not,
A day will come that
We may leave, parting others
For times, better, or worse.
Days will pass nd we may drift,
parting our ways.
Find no time to say a
Hello or hi.
With years, we may not cognize
Ourselves or others
Also, a day may come,
Sooner, than I think.
Sudden nd unexpected,
To relinquish, one and all, forever.
No time or mood, to say bye.
Better I say now, goodbye.
Goodbye my child, goodbye.
No regrets later, for
Not telling it, before.
THE POEM BY MY NIECE.
GOODBYE by Tmt. Meena Suresh.
Let's not say goodbye
It sounds too final....
As if we are closing the doors
Of shared thoughts over
The years unknowingly...
Let's not say goodbye
Bye and bye can only
Detach us from time immortal
As it looks over wafting memories
For years unknowingly
Let's not say goodbye
Goodness never opens
And closes as too many souls
Had interlaced their existence
Over the years unknowingly...
Let's not say goodbye....
Sometimes somewhere something
Someone will take us closer together
And make us feel one ....to unite
Along the years unknowingly....
