a poem of remembrance
When the rising sun reveals its grace
And the world is enshrouded by its heavenly embrace
When the curtain of darkness is replaced by day
Then the silent soul inwardly says
"I think of you"

When the glorious light falls on the slumbering face
And the ants arise to work and play
When the lonely halls fill with hi and hey
Then the melancholic mind cries in vain
"I think of you"

When the worries of life rule the day
And the people immerse in sorrow and pain
When joyous laughter arises from the foray
Then the throbbing heart erupts with pain
"I think of you"

When the call of My Lord brings work to a stay
And the creation indulges in worship and pray
When the laughter and sound begins to fade
Then the tear-streaked eyes wordlessly state
"I think of you"

When darkness envelops the glowing sun
And the world retires after work well done
When the stillness of the night over powers the day
Then the broken girl wistfully says
"I think of you"

When loneliness invades the peaceful sleep
And the empty heart begins to weep
When the distressed mind shuns dreams away
Then the sleep-deprived body angrily complains
"I think of you"

When every gaze is met with black
And the adamant will begins to crack
When the thirst for light becomes a crave
Then the lifeless corpse begins to quake
"I think of you"

When the white of the eye turns to blood
And the scornful rain turns soil to mud
When the final star vanishes away
Then the final tear also fades
Still...I think of you.

Dedicated to my dad. May his soul rest in the highest heavens. I will always  remember you.
