A lioness
Sona sharma 1994 (Ambala)
I don't know when it happened
Like a fury in a jungle
All burnt
The little cub still alive
Searching
Searching for a habitat
Searching searching
Still not found
Then off it went
What to do
Now a lion
It's mother in his memory
Tying to erase it
But still Burn burn burn oh mother
I want you forgotten
Why in my deepest thoughts
You rein like a goddess
I trusted blindly always
About this poem
