In The Library, A Touching English Poem By Jean Valentine In Hindi/Urdu Translation Poem by Ravi Kopra

In the Library by Jean Valentine

Light drifts across the ceiling
as if we are under water

—whoever would approach you
you changed the comer

You holding on to the front of my coat
with both hands, the last time I saw you

—I felt your death coming close
—the change in your red lips

You gave me your hand.
You pulled me out of the ground.



"This was written about a beloved friend who had a great gift of life even when he was close to death himself."

—Jean Valentine
