A Letter To Appu With Love From Durga Didi Poem by Bharati Nayak
A Letter To Appu With Love From Durga Didi
Apu
Can you hear me?
Long years have elapsed
Your call aroused me from my sleep
Can you see me
I have crossed over
To the other side of the border.
Oh, our days were so jolly
The Kash flowers, so lovely
So tasty, tamarind jelly.
How adventurous we were?
Have we not seen the train?
Have we traveled
in that train?
Yes, yes
We have traveled to Mars
Where water is found
Under layers of ice
We can melt the ice
And bring water to surface
Yes, life is possible
As ice will again become liquid
And we
Can bring life
To our land
Yes Apu,
We have really traveled
On the train.
With love
From Didi
Lovely poem just full of love and affection for young brother...liked it...thank u for sharing :)
What a fine inter-planetary imagery created by an independent monologue of a fictional character. The scope of life and hope is beyond measure. Thanks, Bharati ji.
The love between brother and sister with connection to the nature has been touchingly expressed. With affectionately elder sister Durga says to brother Appu... Yes, life is possible As ice will again become liquid And we Can bring life To our land Yes Apu, We have really traveled On the train. Beautiful poem shared. Thanks for sharing.
Beautiful letter from Didi to younger Appu. Something different you have come up with. Loved reading it.
Sibling love and affection reflected in both the poems i read by Bharati Nayak and Sayeed Abubakar. Both the poems are equally beautiful in the message conveyed. Beautiful.
Thank you dear Uzefa Rashida M.a for your appreciation of my poem and Sayeed Abubakar's poem.Sayeed is like my younger brother staying across border.
May Appu and Durga succeed in bringing life to the LAND when they travel on the train. Mam, I liked the way you expressed the grief of siblings far off cherishing the moments of joy together and his strong will to pursue their dream!

With heaven it is bound, To reach God is its goal; Every love has its sound; it's the sound of winning a soul. - Your Appu is crying beyond the border. O Durga didi, can you hear?
Thank you Sayeed, I am beyond speech.
