"THE OLD WOMEN" ~ANOMITRA SARKAR
The Old Women
Poem-
There is she,
A hopeless and stuttering
Old Woman.
Peeping out all day
Watchin' over,
The flickering night stars
Watchin' over,
The flickering daisies
The tree is hiding from the shade
Of her own leaves.
Everytime I pass by,
I espy her.
Her orb slightly opens,
Which is more rubescent,
Every next day.
Even the blow of a zephyr
Can't pass her,
Stygian and eld fate
Or her torn out
Visage and vestures.
A hopeless and stuttering
Old Woman.
Peeping out all day
Watchin' over,
The flickering night stars
Watchin' over,
The flickering daisies
The tree is hiding from the shade
Of her own leaves.
Everytime I pass by,
I espy her.
Her orb slightly opens,
Which is more rubescent,
Every next day.
Even the blow of a zephyr
Can't pass her,
Stygian and eld fate
Or her torn out
Visage and vestures.

Message by the Poet-
The best thing about this poem is that, every word is true. How old they might be or maybe they haven't done the best for you. But you gotta understand, it was the best they could have done and what you are doing by not taking care for him/her is the least you can do. So, take care of you old father or mother. He/she had you as a responsibility now its your turn to take care of her as a responsibility, it should be a necessity to take care for him/her, don't consider this a burden.
