Barren, cold desert
High, rocky mountains
Icy freezing winds
Desolate, uneasy loneliness
Unexpected, barbaric treachery
brutal, tragic consequences
Loss of life and limb
yes, most certainly
but more significantly
Loss of trust and faith
in humanity
in the given word
Loss of total respect
for international convention
for law and treaty
A rejection of
the universally established
warrior code
But for the so-called
Realist, pragmatist and
clever by half
All is fair in “………”
Criticism and condemnation
keeps flowing
thick and fast
From the nay-sayers, doubters
and holy experts
The Why(s)? the Really?
and the How could you(s)?
Scant respect and sensitivity
for those who have fallen
Laid down their lives unflinchingly
without a second thought
for home and hearth
for promises unkept
for open waiting arms
Let us be kind
let us be generous
trust their actions
honour their valour
appreciate their resolve
salute their sacrifice
Brave they are, one and all
Will never let the Tricolour fall
Its true that this brave twenty or the entire Indian Armed Forces will never fail,
And allow the Tricolor to be disrespected or put to Shame.
They are forged into a Steely frame and their Honour, Courage, Fidelity and and Loyalty to the Tricolor, will never wane.
Twenty died, many more will happily with smile on the face , no enemy can but be scared of such a race.
But as the aftermath of the episode unfolds, the Nation in its mourning , cry ,
As to why and why were they left to go unarmed, when Chinese had broken all promises of protocol and honour amongst friends for over a month ?
And since early May , resorted to skullduggery all along the LAC we claimed.
Many got injured but the Indian soldier didn’t budge , steadfast against all
odds.
And it was just the Indian media which stirred the pot, each incident added more juice to their vile broth.
The people got restive and raised questions,
And got branded “anti national”,
As if in a Democracy “ Death of Soldiers” cannot be questioned.
Clarifications came but only to muddle it all ,
And till date the Nation wants to know,
Of what happened on the icy slopes and that do we have all that is,
Our own?

The poem is the symbol of valour and patriotism of the soldiers in the front whose travails have been described, nourished by them for the sake of the country. Colonels are also benevolent executives.
