Her voice
Saturday,5th January 2019
“Papa, Papa” I heard her voice
She had promised
to call me back
as so much was at the stake
She is living abroad
I have hardly known or heard
she is waiting for her visa
for ten long years, she is awaiting on Government’s agenda
I was having Little Nap
when heard the tap
on the door and got up suddenly
in the dream, she had gone already
I had consoled her by few words
“come back” if your legal struggle doesn’t work
it is their country and rules
we have to abide by as true citizens
if they have a standard procedure
they will follow it and ensure
they know students suffer
and will certainly show the leniency and offer
