Aparna Mukherjee

Remember me in quiet days,

while raindrops

whisper on your pane.

Remember in your memories

have no grief,

let the joy we knew remain.

Remember me if once you wake,

to catch a glimpse of red sunrise.

Remember when your thoughts

do turn to me,

know that I would not have you cry,

but live for me, and laugh for me.

When you are happy so am I.

Remember an old joke we shared.

Remember me when

spring walks by.

Think once of me when you are glad

And while you live, I shall not die!
