Some people
You meet and lose
During journey of life
Though no longer
Part of your life
Yet their thoughts
And memories
Keep inspiring
You for life with
Right values and ethics
And enlighten path
To achieve ends,
A blessing sort
In disguise...
They are like Akashdeep -
The ethereal lamp
In your life
Of the Lighthouse
In the erstwhile times
Once so widely used
To emit light in dark
For the navigators
And sailors,
An aid to navigation
In finding direction
And destination
To the harbour
On mainland.
