Hand in Hand
Hirendra Kumar Meher 1961 (Odisha)
I walked, hand in hand, with my father
from home to school..
At school, I blossomed cool -
Hand in hand with my friends,
I glowed with a rhythmic trend.
Surprisingly, I discovered some faces,
Fatherly motherly,
Enthusiastically, they gathered me and my emotions.
Hand in hand with teachers,
I stepped on with a scholastic motion.
Hand in hand with my parents,
Gifted I was a world of no noise.
Hand in hand with my friends,
Gifted I was a world of music.
Hand in hand with my teachers,
Gifted I was a world how to construct.
They were the hands, they are the hands;
They will stand forever for ages and to ages to come.
About this poem
I composed this poem because I feel owing to some of the people in the process of building of my life, they are unforgettable hands.
