(A baby was admitted to ER with status epilepticus. Poor pediatrician refused to give Diazepam to him, baby passed away on mom’s hands) <br /> <br />Oh! please don’t cry mom… <br />Don’t cry…. <br />Your baby would never come back <br />Please let him be in his destiny <br />You don’t own him <br />He never owns himself either <br />Karma brought him <br />Bad fever <br />Continuous convulsions <br />Poor doctor <br />With indolent strategy <br />Could hardly save him…. <br />All flowers wither <br />Yet, ‘times so are buds <br />You may collect mustard seeds <br />From a house never had a funeral <br />As “kisa” did during Buddha’s time <br />You may never find a single seed <br />Don’t cry dear mom <br />You will never get him back <br />No God can do that <br />no one is immortal.<br /><br />Kolitha Lelwala<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/don-t-cry-mom/
