Hi Friends,

Even as I launch this today ( my 80th Birthday ), I realize that there is yet so much to say and do. There is just no time to look back, no time to wonder,"Will anyone read these pages?"

With regards,

Now as I approach my 90th birthday ( 27 June 2023 ) , I invite you to visit my Digital Avatar ( www.hemenparekh.ai ) – and continue chatting with me , even when I am no more here physically

चंपा के दो फूल



______________________________________________________

जब मैं चल दूंगा कल 
तब तुम रोती होगी ;

पर 
ये भी तो सोचो 
जीवन है कितना सुन्दर  ;

देखो 
उम्र आयी है 
खुशियों के ख़ज़ाने लेकर  ;

मुझे भूल जाना ,
तुम्हे ग़मो छू न पाएंगे ;

सिवा जब ,

मेरी मज़ार पर 
तेरे आँगन में खिले 
चंपा के 
दो फूल  चढ़ाओगी 

====================

Tomorrow
when I am dead
you will cry ;

But life ought to be beautiful
and
bring you such happiness

that I should be soon
forgotten,
as also the sorrow,

except when you bring
lilacs to my grave
