His exit is due today. <br />The send off is befitting. <br />The eulogy is lip deep, <br />Not with a heart to weep. <br />He returns with heavy heart <br />He would be in them after his exit. <br />It is not to happen. <br />He has to weep ever since. <br />The same thing will happen <br />When he leaves the world <br />But he will not be there to weep. <br />27.11.2004<br /><br />Rm.Shanmugam Chettiar.<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/death-is-better-than-retirement/
