I DO REMEMBER
Dr. Baljit Singh
I do remember
The first day in Australia
At Melbourne Airport
Our friends had come to pick up us
Drizzling at the airport
As if God were saying
Take bath
Before you join us
Hot food with respect and care
Our friends served us
Few years ago had come from India
As if, God had arranged to pick up us
Next morning a turn took
To the main street of Ivanhoe, unknown to us
As if God was walking
To show the place of us
Suited, booted, nervous
Unseen happiness on us
A system was following
Cross the road with us
I never felt
Angels are following
As if, God is everywhere
HE too following us
Today I feel
Australia is of us
As if, God says
Keep walking
Angels continue to follow us
