Dying Poem by Dr. Ramesh Chandra Mukhopadhyaya

If cowards could really die many times before their death

They are truly great

After each death they are born with renewed vigour

Red Blood Cells live 120 days

Stomach cells live for 2 days only

The skin cells die in 35 days

And so on

Should we not die in harmony with them

time and time again

and be cowards literally

to renew ourselves

Of course the brain lives

as long as the human body lives

Does the brain outlive the body?

Who knows'
