Dear Doctor

Sketch a character


Humble heart, compassion in his each cell,
My inspiration, my mentor taught me so well,
Honour for life is the twinkle of his eyes,
Will not let even poor suffer at any price,

Dr. Bhimsen Chopra his good name,
Hard work and honesty, earned peak fame,
Kindness as if runs in his blood,
Love for all that flows, is enough to flood, 

Workaholic always seen with patients around,
Zeal to serve sick, is so profound,
Effortlessly turns distress to succour,
Humour, wit and brilliance his valour,

Many owe to him, hopeless survived,
A gem keeping today's humanity alive !
