A Patient's View

Asthma, Basedow*, Cholesterol and Diabetes
Topics including these, with a take on Professional fees
Are given in this book in a capsule form
To calm your nerves, like Chloroform.

Kargil and Cyclone are not kept out either
Like Jejunum after Duodenum, one follows the other
Enemies of mankind - be they men, monster or microbes
Are discussed in verse form after several probes.

While the author may or may not be agnostic
He certainly is very diagnostic
The soul of the patients is laid very bare
But the words have been chosen with great care.

In extending the hand with a healing touch
One understands why he is sought after much
‘Doctor in verse, is it for the better or worse?
It’s all for the soul and essentially to nurse.

A Medico scribbling poetry while on call
Is not a strange thing mate; for his name says it all.

- Dr.R.Ravindranath
