A roar
Of a tiger heart,
We all know him,
Very well as a man,
Who fought for
People rights,
And gave them power,
By believing in themselves
He told everyone
Not to forget,
To respect a falling head,
But keep heads
Right up till end,
A man of vision
Who kept growing
As a politician,
But never had fear,
To show other's
Bad deeds by saying,
Through his own style
Of language,
He told the common man,
How to earn,
And live life
By holding hands,
And helping others
In bad times,
He kept
His promise
By putting fire
To money and fame,
And was given
The title "Supremo",
A day
comes and goes,
But he will
always be remembered,
As a tiger.......
