Thoughts of Garden
During this Covid 19 period
Lockdown everywhere
For the pandemic
To be safe and keep safe

I suddenly got call
From a cham
To be in the full of nature
Of mango garden

Readied and hurried
Travelling five kilos
At a lent with full
Protection measures

Surprised of large open
Garden where three and grass
Cattle gazing and people guarding
To save the fruits from beast and thieves

The garden reminded me
The garden of my parents made
Around the house my dad built
In the village where he
His father, grandfather and forefathers lived

I heard that the mangoes
Of our garden was too sweet when ripe
And are sour when green

I missed them and miss them
I thought getting back early
But the destiny kept me
Which I don't wish
