My Saroj, The Pretty Lotus Of
My Pond Is No More
It was Tuesday 12th
March, 2013
The light of my love went out this day
It was Tuesday 10th February of 1959
My friends said it was Valentine's Day
Whatever it was I found my love that day
That was fifty five long years ago today
It can be said it was many years ago
It can also be said once upon a time
In the calm and tiny island of Fiji
That I met my pretty lotus first time
A love that was love at first sight
A love that bloomed as days went by
A love that never faded come what may
I lived with no other thought at all
Than to love her and be loved by her
I was a country lad she a city girl
That match was approved in heaven
Our love was much more than love
We loved , my pretty lotus and me
We lived with no other thought at all
This was the reason we always bloomed
This was why we both always groomed
This was our destiny and our loving path
We made it last and last and last
Time was of no matter at all to us
Money was no clatter at all for us
Living with love was our only aim
Loving each other was our only claim
Our love was much more than love
We were put to many hard tests
We passed them all as best we could
We were united in matrimony with joy
We became two bodies with one soul
We led a brilliant peaceful family life
We deeply adored every day of our life
Our love was much more than love
We happily nurtured our four children
Each one was a jewel in the crown
They made our life all full of fun
They gave us joy of royalty worth a lot
We lived and loved with added pride
Trotted the world with lots of ride
We worked with glory and fame
In the calm and tiny island of Fiji
We moved to Aussie land with joy
Did all work as best as we could
Our love was much more than love
Success and happiness shared with pride
Together we made many progress alright
Our pride was love of our grand children
Each with talents and skills galore
These were the reasons we rejoiced
In Aussie land and the island of Fiji
Our love was much more than love
Days went by and we were getting old
Our love matured and we were told
Slow down so we retired and lived well
Each day was a sacred day for us
We believed in our rich silent prayers
But a severe storm developed in our life
My pretty lotus met a serious disaster
Her lungs and heart both got tired
With the faithful service she gave us all
Medical team did the best to improve her
But nature had its own way to prove
That whoever comes must also move on
That storm blew her soul out leaving me
alone
My pretty lotus left me for good never to
return
She was an angel but others envied
Love that they had never seen before
Neither the angels nor the demons
Could spare the life of my pretty lotus
I, a distraught lover looked at the sky
Yelled, cried and pleaded for her life
No one helped and she was gone
Our love was much more than just love
Now the moon never shines for me
The sun is always setting at wrong times
The stars have all lost their twinkle
The breeze is blowing the other way
The earth is trembling and shaking
The sky is getting darker and darker
The sea of love is getting stormy and
rough
All these coz my pretty lotus is gone
All these coz I am alone and lonely
All these coz my love is love no more
Nature isn't helpful but the bright eyes
Of my pretty lotus shines as ever
She is resting in a tomb I cannot see
She is looking at me I can still feel
She is still my only love I had known
She is my pretty lotus I have treasured
Our love was much more than just love
My Saroj, the pretty lotus of my pond is
no more
Where art thou, come or call me to you
I have a lot to say to you and much to do.
