      Oh Death!

      Where is thy sting

      Where do I visualize it?

      Oh! It is in my own home

      I see it bleeding with endless agony

      For those are droplets of blood

      Laid in service of the nation.

      Saluting to the saviors of the soil

      Who live in deeds, not in years

      In Search of Self

      One day it starts for her, wondering where she will reach and how? Why has she started this journey and what will be she achieve by it? Yes, she remembers:

      ‘It is the heart that aches

      It is the heart that misses!

      The starts the agony to be alone, to be separated! This agony of the soul forces her to cry, request, pray, pester

      ‘Before it is too late

      And the shinning sun of my life sets

      I must know myself

      To make myself a good human being

      So I can belong to God!’

      To travel with Devi Nangrani is nothing but sheer pleasure, joining her on this journey, in search of self and Him. There are oasis which invite and allure, but a true seeker though diverted to the perishable beauties and temporary achievements awakens back on the right path, because, the ultimate destination is to surrender oneself at His Lotus Feet to merge with Him.

      The poet here beautifully portrays the fallacies like misery, mental turbulences and the like, a seeker must meet in simple, pictorial and gripping language. ‘Request to the mind’ is a wonderful poem. ‘The lost city" has to be found, ‘Voice of silence’ has to be heard, ‘Songs of the heart’
