बाबूजी की कविता के कुछ पल । वो इसी तरह गाया करते थे कवि सम्मेलनों में । अस्पताल के अकेले पन में उनकी बहुत याद आती है, और उन्हीं के शब्दों से अपनी सूनी रातों को आबाद करता हूँ ।

This time has truly been a challenging one and everyone is learning to adapt to the new normal. Some have used this in-hand time effectively by connecting with friends, family, spending more time with their pets, learning how a minimalist approach towards life is the most fulfilling one.
