I need some water to sprout
in this dreary deadly summer,
I am alive because my hopes are
the hot heat waves are burning my leaves and flowers
but I am alive because I hope in future, there will be showers
a day will come when I will be the witness of baby sparrow's first chirp
by getting my sweet fruits, the little squirrel will burp
I will decorate myself with the long and beautiful tender vines
and will look gorgeous after having bird nest of serene design
the twigs of mine will make the shelter to the poor
travellers will take afternoon nap in my shadow for hours
despite all the adversities against my survival I believe in my dream
because my dreams are my life and my life is my dream
Sagar was a doctor, pursuing DNB Family medicine at JSS. A beautiful soul, always cheerful, extremely simple and down to earth. He wrote stories and poems and could sing a song with any word you give him. He talked to the patients with empathy to hear their stories, sought to understand health and justice at the deepest level and was committed for a lifetime to serve the poor. He died in a motorcycle accident on 8th May 2016. We lost him in body and actions but he still lives in us through his spirit, ideas, memories and writings like this.
