'A painting a day will keep you happy'

A gift from Pankaj-da to DD, saying this way it will be safe forever- at IIT Kanpur. 

 

I hear myself in distant noises
Feverish, tears in waiting
The mind swinging
Staying over moments as in rest houses,
Taking a break
The time that knows only to go past
Smiles, the cries, busy completing in turn
For you and others ad infinitum,
For everyone, I find none
Waiting, for lost moon, the bright sun
That enters straight inside, with its colour
In the vast comfort of corner home,
The incomplete and the feeling of let go
The legends will sing on
For long as far we will know
The lost meeting, the sudden rain,
The untold story on your face
The moon will grow, slow
Day after day
Until it can no more.
