We should not be sad because they are not here and we can’t see them…but we should smile because they lived. They are watching us and we can make them happy by being someone they would want us to be…
नम आँखों से छलकते जज़्बात…
उन्हें भूल पाना अब मुमकिन नहीं ,
के ये कोमल एहसास ही, साँसों का सहारा बन गया ;
उनकी छाया तले ही सीखा जीना हमने,
और उनका अक्स ही, किस्मत का सितारा बन गया ;
साहिलों से नाता टूटे ज़माना हो चला,
के उफनते इस सागर में, ये तिनका ही किनारा बन गया ;
पर दूर होकर भी वो इस दिल से दूर नहीं,
के बुझी कहीं एक लौ, तो कहीं शरारा बन गया ;
रौशन है ये रूह बस उन्हीं के नूर से,
के बिखरा एक सपनों का महल, और यादों से दोबारा बन गया ;
साँसों का सहारा बन गया… ||

Dear doc2poet,
Your poem is in hindi. I speak well but do not read hindi. I am 73 years old today. I came to terms with the departed souls only about two and a half years ago when I fortunately joined a ‘faith cum living philosophy’ group . This gave me a new perspective. Every morning and evening we include prayers for the departed. For the first time I have found peace. I lead a very active life.
I am living alone but found acceptance in the future generation.
I am very happy and able to cope with obstacles in my life.
