Poem
Why am I hurt so sore, my folks Why does my heart bleed Why do I take it so personally Why do I need to worry at all Yesterday my General, his men And the family were here in splendor Today they are nowhere to be seen Men in uniform were together for breakfast But for lunch, they will never ever be seen again Is it the suddenness of the event Is it the bizarreness of the tragedy Is it the mystery behind the trauma Is it the loss of blood, of our very own The nation has lost a Military Persona The army its Chief de Forces, CDS This event has shocked the nation As the General and his wife died in horror To lose them all this nation can never afford We fail to see the web that spelled doom To a helicopter that was versatile The mystery is baffling to the nation Just as the fear of the unknown A team of decorated warriors vanishes In a tragedy on the mountainside A ghastly mishap of Himalayan scale A sadness that has left the country in tears Did some miscreants have a plot A scar on security prowess An insult to a nation’s pride A lapse with huge implications Can the army ever fail at all With war clouds looming large This Gladiator will be missed a lot Enemies rejoice in another’s wound We just need to turn a page in history Our love for the General stays in our hearts The Indian military may mourn its dead But it never ever spares its enemies Time will reveal the true story Now let us bid farewell to the General And great warriors a woman of honor!
