An ode to GB, from a puneite…

It was just yesterday, I sat there with donuts and coffee,

Great friends, loads of carb and sweet memories…

It was just yesterday, my friend asked me out,

We met up right outside, and then we didn’t want to get out…

It maybe the day before, when I heard all about the place,

How lovely the crowd, how pretty and full of solace…

It was a landmark, a place to hang out,

For anyone who wanted to feel the real pune, went to check it out.

And then today, some loser came through,

Played deception and the ripped whole place through.

What benefit did the ripper gain?

He killed several, and just left behind fear and pain.

Not that the city stood still, in spite of the chill,

there was strong determination and will.

He who brought sorrow to others, may receive the same,

Pain is always bargained for more pain.

Hope people who thought this and brought this realize,

Heaven will be gated, for murder of innocents’ receives no prize.
