Analysis of BURIAL GROUND



Naveen Malhotra April 12, 2022

BURIAL GROUND
My heart was
A stream of love
Store house of joy
Myriad of dreams
Burgeoned
Myriad of ambitions
Took birth
All to perish
Be buried
Burial ground
You made of it
Every desire
Every wish
Every thought
Every emotion
Every feeling
Every drive
Gets buried in it
And I stoically
Stare at it
