Alone Not!

I saw it and pitied it ever since!

How can it stand alone there?

Even if I were for a minute, I'll wince

And try to seek company here and there.

It reminds me of a situation I

Don't want to even dream for any.

After my end too, I wouldn't wish to lie,

Alone. Instead, will stay with many.

An unlucky chap, perhaps a departed soul,

Someone who committed a heinous crime,

A seeker who never reached his ultimate goal,

Are closer I felt. There was nothing sublime.

Perhaps that eternal character which

Lived to see his great grandchildren,

Died when he wished, a great man as such,

Must have been similar, I thought then!

The lone palm tree in that vast desert,

Resembling Bhishma, a true warrior,

Tall, never bent, and did not desert

Its position, made me to feel it as dear!

Alone Not!
