A Man Like This

A man like this, Who sacrifices his entire life for the betterment of our country uniting whole nation. Who reached his goal digesting every tension. India become independent without any war, without any aggression. It is only possible due to such a great son He is our ‘Bapuji’ , father of our nation. A man like this Who spent his life wearing a six feet ‘dhoti’, eating food of a common man, walking miles & miles by foot, talking the secret of non-violence, brought our independence spending life in the prison, defeated our enemy without any gun. He is our ‘Bapuji’ , father of our nation. A man like this, Who was a man dressed god. Didn’t need any post Even after our freedom. Still, we could not able to feel the heart of a sacred idol. Could not able to read the message of a sacrosanct soul. Who struggled entire life for our freedom, he was shot dead by a blind Indian son , He is our ‘Bapuji’ , father of our nation. ------------------------------------------------------------- This poem is written to commemorate our great freedom fighter & father of our nation ‘Mahatma Gandhi’.
