I Stopped Reading Books And Started Obituaries! Poem by nimal dunuhinga

I Stopped Reading Books And Started Obituaries!



It's really sad and interesting too
Reading the obituaries.
Though I am a stranger to this soil
I feel they are like my relatives.
So & So born and dead on this particular day
And she had a deep love for animals
And for fine arts.
She has given some names of her best friends.
After a thorough check I found my name was not there
And I had a sad feeling still I am an alien
To the old aged people.
May you rest in peace Madam!
And I read you again in the next year Memorial
If time permits?
