Liberty and freedom with
Monday,20th July 2020
Liberty and freedom
seldom easily got
it needs personal sacrifice
even laying down of life with the promises for land
if freedom has to be availed
liberty has not be trailed back
if shooter gets from to shoot
such liberty can be crushed by theheavy boot
Bapu* as Mahatma Gandhi is called
whole country cried when he was gunned down
while praying for the country
we faced great shock and felt so much of pity
Bapy* had dreamt about party less country
and advocated disbandment of the party
but power hungry politicians disregarded advice
but from heart never promised
such great man laid down life
and fell victim to assassin's bullet
the country faced great ire
the whole theory of non-violence was in fire

*Bapu: Mahatma Gandhi
