Ghar Ki Yaad

Here is a lovely poem about a family missing their son that many readers may identify with. Poem is written by the son (Bhawani) who left home for studies / work. Here on a rainy day, Bhawani sorely misses home and imagines how his father, mother, brothers ands sisters too must be missing him. Look especially at the last three stanzas where Bhawani does not want his family to know the hardships he faces in the alien land as that would worry his family. I am sure this will move many readers. The poem is an excerpts form a longer poem written by Bhawani Prasad Mishra Ji. Reader Paridhi Sharma informs me that the poem was written by Mishra Ji when during Independence Struggle, he was jailed and was missing his home. Rajiv Krishna Saxena.
