REQUIEM For Amrit
Soft-spokem
Casual
Yet sincere
Your favourites
Checked shirt
Faded denim jeans
Remember you
Having grown
Your beard (for a while)
Nothing elaborate
Just a sparse growth
Untrimmed (for a while)
Inquistive and
Always quick
On the repartee
You sometimes
Made my class
A little difficult
On other days
Your witty remarks
Would fill the classroom
With a warmth
On a wet
Chilly morning 7 am lecture
Did not interact much
With you outside or
Inside the class
Yet your laughing
Jovial face
Could be seen from afar
You left so suddenly
Most of us are benumbed
With shock
A little angry
Why him?
Why Amrit?
Why now?
