Doctor was on visit to mental asylum ward
Mentally retarded patients were enjoying with words
Some one was singing and some were crying
Each one had his own drum for beating
Doctor could notice one patient with happiness
There was complete shine on his face
“Why is it so unusual” he asked nurse
“Sir, he is claiming to be poet” and behaving also of course
Doctor was amused at the incidence
But he was afraid of patient’s presence
He was happy alright but stared dangerously
“Just keep watch” he should not be isolated completely
Doctor checked complete history
There was no problem for recovery
He was not to be treated for madness
It was simple case of aloofness
“Such patients should be kept in isolation ward”
They can breathe freely there without work
Give them impression of being real masters
They will enjoy at the feeling of being youngsters
“But sir, any medicines are you suggesting”? Nurse asked
“No, no medicine needed but only resting” doctor stated
He is suffering from unique disease called “only me”
So let him stay here as much as he wanted and feel free
We wondered at the treatment given
All the ills of patient was forgotten
Doctor was master of his profession
We had last laugh on matter with confession
