ESSENTIAL

Waiting on the platform

Seeing the portrait around

Touched by memories;felt the warm

I think of you deep profound.

Every morning outside my hood

Tiny pearls, thousands there

Would have kept if I could

At its best kept undisturbed without any care.

Brothers fighting in the game

A thing is there on younger's face

You flash in between those frame

Very few have it in this world of chase.

An old lady was there in the train

Held her bag with shivering hand;

Long ago, when we walked in rain

You too held mine as magician's wand.

To my surprise it rained today

Late on platform I felt the warm

Not because i needed it 

Just as it has become essential of each day.

I think of you, it's my habit

Every time to learn, you are my essential!
