WHAT IS SORROW ?

SHARMIN AKTAR

 

I asked a poet,

“What is sorrow ?’

He answered me;

Sorrow means –

Inability to express 

The feelings, impulse

In the form of poem.

 

Asked a millionaire also,

‘What is sorrow ?’

He informed me

Sorrow means –

Dispossessing of

Decorative giant house

From glorious city .

 

I told a scientist,

‘What is sorrow?’

He said to me

Giving dry laugh;

No discovery of things,

About to invent .

 

I asked a day laborer,

‘What is sorrow ?’

He informed me

With tearful eyes;

Not getting a handful rice

After hard working

On day long.
