Hey My BSL Bach Mates!

Hey My BSL Bach Mates!

 

 

In 1971 May

on its last day

bunched we together

right from Alma-mater

energetic at the twenties

never dreamt “woes of old age will ever rise”

joined at BSP, DSP RSP

and instantly built a friendship

strengthened it further

to BSL, on our transfer

to commission and operate her/

We together did the wonder

operating at front

enduring the blunt

of process and machines’ malfunction

to successfully commission

Staying on share

taking each other’s care

forty nine years ago

with early twenty ego

young world beaters, were we

time is very cruel to flee.

with limping limbs fading memory

our golden days concealed in history

But our continual bondage scores over it

we meet still revive the then young spirit

with friends sharing our haydays

in synch where all memories blaze.

We cannot but pnly grieve at our lapses

but pardon ourselves with earthly excuses

as aloof we remained to shape the family destiny

little time to spare to the friendship and company

Now we are old tattered and battered

over countless battles of life awkward.

Friends Jha Saxena Rajesh Pratik

and many jewels have fallen so quick

We had hardly time to mourn for them at heart

now we feel for them when it is time for us to depart.

Pray we Lord to rst them in peace

“ You all are alive at our heart till our sighs cease.”.

On this auspicious day today

let us go back to our heyday

revive the spirit of the then thirty fists May

together till death stay bonded the same way.

and let us forget the age and on joy the blur.

to prove“ We are naughtier than our grandkids when together.”

In the service od Lord
