No To Century

Tagore and Gandhi were friends hearty,
Gandhi wrote once to Tagore neatly,
"Live long more and more other years twenty,
Wishing Rabindranath Tagore at his eighty,
"How can I carry a century,very heavy this eighty?
Replied Tagore,Mahatma Gandhi adding beauty,
Tagore went to God to carry by his hands at his Eighty,
Leaving a short message to this world of naughty!
