Poem: Missing You My Sweet Sis Sanchita

One more poem dedicated to some special moments and memories. This poem is dedicated to my dear Facebook friend and my sister Sanchita Biswas, who left this world a few years back.  


missing you my sweet sis

your warmth and love

your caring words

your sweet blog comments

missing you my sweet sis

your sweet voice

like Bengali sweets

your sweet encouragement

for writing poems

and your sweet sweet poems

missing you my sweet sis

your sweet friendship

your support

and sharing those secrets

missing you my sweet sis

that cruel moment

you left all of us

i was shattered

sweet love of a sweet sis

i felt i lost it forever

my dearest sweet sis

your love’s still in my heart

though missing you a lot

you’re always in my heart

my sweet sis, my sweet Sanchu Di!

After her demise, I had tried to avoid expressing the grief for all these years. Sanchita Di was such a darling, her voice was very sweet, and so was her nature. She used to encourage me, she used to love my poems, and her comments were so sweet, just incredible! She was a great poet and her poetry had a depth of the subtle emotions which we often fail to recognize and express.

Today by writing and cherishing the moments with her in a poem, I am feeling free from one more sorrow. 

I am sure, if she would read this month’s poems by me, she would be super happy, she would love them all and comment almost every day.
