The Idol

Breathed his last,
On dear's lap.

Each cells of her immersed in deep sorrow,
From that sorrow, a glow has
Risen, consecrated an idol
At the deepest of her heart.

Illuminated that idol,
With never ending memories,
Prayed, worshipped and loved,
That idol till her last breath.

Sometimes with loss of a dear, we forget to reach out to the light that made them and focus on the darkness that took them. This is nice Binoy.
