When I wrote to him asking for
His books and interviews,
I remember how he sent by post to me
The copies of Winter Poems,
The Keeper of the Dead and Crossing of Rivers
And a Xerox copy of the CV sent to Sahitya Akademi, and two letters.
Daruwalla as a Parsi poet
Was Ted Hughesian
Who wrote on tragedy and violence,
Curfew, death and disease,
The epidemic and the flood inundating the areas,
Animal imagery, the wolf, the hawk and the eagle. |
