Just like his
stories and novels, Ruskin’s poems, too, are simple and engrossing. As we all
know that Ruskin Bond epitomizes children’s books in India, and we have been
reading his stories since early days. Well, did you ever try reading poems and
verses written by him? Probably no, because publishing houses take no interest
in publishing poem books. For them publishing is a business, well our hero
Ruskin writes poem for fun and children.
We have
brought forward some of his best poems – they are for all ages, alike. This
poem explores the value of love, we as humans must fall in love to have company
in our lonely life. Love is a vital force in life, without it one is incomplete,
and in the later phase of life one may grief like a sarus crane who has lost
its partner. Love is vital, love is all we all need.
We must love
someone
If we are to
justify
Our presence
on this earth.
We must keep
loving all our days,
Someone,
anyone, anywhere
Outside
ourselves;
For even the
sarus crane
Will grieve
over its lost companion,
And the seal
its mate.
Somewhere in
life
There must be
someone
To take your
hand
And share the
torrid day.
Without the
touch of love
There is no
life, and we must fade away.
By Ruskin Bond
