A Tribute

   Picture: Richard - III performed by Natrang and Rangroots theatre 
                                    at Amar Mahal, Jammu

Benign the night that brought thy acclaimed selves
to pour to eyes that pine for plays divine,
a fact, an act with tact of playful elves;
a tale, like ale that could prevail past nine.

What math, the hour that hath power and wrath!
What myth, this lore, told not before; how blithe
were we, to see the London Tower bath
the skies with gore; the floor became a scythe!

Who could foretell this spell that would compel,
us beings to stay until kindled anew
with feelings such that even Time’s bosom swell;
who knew that you would come to our rescue!

Remember thee, we will until we breathe,
for thou canst have more than what thou bequeath.
