Chrysanthemom - Paperback

by Satishchandra Marutrao Gaikwad (Author)

Covid19 puts humanity in a whirlpool of uncertainty

and grief. A Doctor caught in Covid-storm while

navigating his boat (profession ) he sees his patients

and dear ones sinking and giant waves rising to

capsize the boat . He is devastated and in grief

seeing hundreds of dead bodies like Arjun in

Mahabharat . Nature taking role of Lord Krishna,

asks the Doctor to ponder what went wrong and the

churning results into the birth of this poetry book- his first

English Poetry Book.

It encompasses the entire span of life from birth to death as

well as the whole animal kingdom from Lizard to Egret and

from Virus to Man !

Here the Lizard comments on evolution, Mangroves

talk of balance in nature and Mystical Star speaks

about eternity.

And the Doctor asserts that the Covid19 will meet its

end and world will see bright happy days

"There the world is ruled by God's laws

Buried under ground all human flaws

There the clouds can't hide shining stars

Peaceful nights and far away wars!"

On Krishna-Kamal opening its petals in morning his

first poem was born in November 2020 and last on

Sunset as his brother Surendra succumbed to Covid

in April 2021.
