Death Took Toll On My Father

He was reclining cold and motionless Silence reigned as it signalled a torment I prostrated and remained quiet, wordless My mother's elegy evoked lament. As the days passed, he started deforming Lifeless body lay hardened but mounted, To the neighbours gathered, went informing Of the subtlety of very life, bewitched. Kinsfolk followed you till crematorium With prayers of praise in warm condolence Soul shall find solace with honorarium Through your religious deeds in governance As the bodily disappearance calls, Just flash of fiery ignition that brawls. ©?????Khachab Dorji????
