A Clue

a poem by Mahendra

I was busy
searching for a clue
to identify
that blood-stained body
of a young man
in that accident site.

By chance
I saw a letter
peeping from his pocket.
It read:

“Dear Hasmukh
please don’t postpone your visit
once again due to work pressure
I miss you a lot
and so do our children
I long to see you
to be in your arms and then
even death can’t dare
to separate us, I am sure
Yours forever
Savita”
