Raushan Shridhar

They can’t be harmed

Sun cannot un-colour them,
Who colour our land.

All breaths rely on them
Till their last breath.

Pain of theirs
for us is no pain – we have lost those views
running the race of gain.

They are trees and brooks,
and Gutter can be their other name,

sadly, they exist beneath the civil realm.
