Some friend send a message  ,

Our great  friend Anonymous   is no more

His kith and  kin   have ccome  from all over

And tomorrow   he   will  be cremated in royal way

 

I thought  is it true  , had he  not died,

Twenty   years  ago  when his wife died

And in the house  of his children,

No one   asked him “Had he  eaten his lunch?”

                                            Did any one find out?

 

Is it true  , had    he not died  ,

On a day when he   was sleeping

And his daughterin law  was screaming

Why did he  not follow her then itself?

                                              Did any one find out?

 

 

Is it true  , had he  not died,

When he  gave all he had  to his son

And his son  was Telling his friend  , does trees,

Bear  money, how will I look after this burden?

                                              Did any one find out?

 

 

Is it true  , had he not died ,

On that  day  , when he  went to toilet

His children were  discussing  seriously,

Which old age home  he should  be put.

                                              Did any one find out?

 

 

Is it true ,  had he not    died  ,

On the day  , when sitting  on park  bench,

His close   friend  teased  him,

“She has gone , your life is jolly”

                                            Did any one find out?

 

 

When you go for a walk  in tne evening, on your way

Several  people  like anonymous   will be sitting,

Stop for  a minute  , with sympathy and friendliness,

Ask  him “ Hey friend how are  you?”
