On The Eve Of The Raksha Bandhan Poem by Bijay Kant Dubey

O postman, take out not the rakhis
Which the expecting sisters send they
As have heard about,
You try to deliver as fast as can
Without extracting them
As some of have said it so!


In this age of internet access, e-mails can be sent
But the letters, I mean envelopes, with the rakhis,
Cannot be,
You please ask your friends
Who are not so emotionally alive!

The rakhi is a bond of love,
Reminding the brother of his sister
And the sister feeling for sitting somewhere
And the brother too expecting for with the cheek on the hands,
Oh, the relationship of love!
