Mothers' Day Poem by Rajkumar Mukherjee

Mothers' Day

Rating: 5.0


MOTHERS’ DAY
On the eve of Mothers’ Day

You present her with a golden bullet like 007

That pierced through her hand

And took shelter in the heart of her son

When she was feeding rice to him


She doesn’t know yet the boy died

With the last lunch of the bullet

No body feel any remorse

They are in search of source

From whose gun it was shot


Does it make a difference

The mother lost her son

For no fault of hers or the toddler


Quietly the crowd disperse

In fear of identification

Is this what an election

Will you call it fare and free

In the 21st century

In the largest democracy

Or the largest hypocrisy?
