Tribute To a True Journalist

When, like your own very death, you hear, Early morning, in an unexpected hour; That a person who you have been seeing, Every day, as a journalist, and admiring; His realistic reporting on things and events, As original as they are with full commitments; Is no more and you'll not hear him anymore, And his soul toward highest heavens sore… ..................................... ................................................ This was what I felt when I heard the demise, Of Kamal Khan, of N.D.T.V, who suddenly dies… ..................................... ................................................ I’ve seen him calling a spade a spade, None could dare, his genuineness, invade; A person with deeply reflected insights, On society, religion and vivacious politics; He stood out unique for his perspectives, His great expression of words and verses; A generous person, and a loving human, Who enjoyed hilly truth; little mammon… ..................................... ................................................ May his soul Rest In Peace I pray, May he enjoy his heavenly stay...! May he report to us what’s really above, May his truthfulness inspire us, truth, to love…! 14 January 2022
