Theme: Remembrance

Keki N. Daruwalla: A Remembrance

When I wrote to him asking for

His books and interviews,

I remember how he sent by post to me

The copies of Winter Poems,

The Keeper of the Dead and Crossing of Rivers

And a Xerox copy of the CV sent to Sahitya Akademi, and two letters.

 

Daruwalla as a Parsi poet

Was Ted Hughesian

Who wrote on tragedy and violence,

Curfew, death and disease,

The epidemic and the flood inundating the areas,

Animal imagery, the wolf, the hawk and the eagle.
