In a World of the Broken Hearted - A book of verse - Dr. Umanand Prasad
Recently I reread a book by my late father Dr. Umanand Prasad and thought that I would use this blog to type a verse every now again.
I have gained permission from his wife and my mother Dr. Uma Prasad to reproduce this.
I am currently in the process of rewriting his book and adding my own verses.
To my Daughter
My Loving Daughter
Who loves me lot
Mothers are precious
Fathers never forgot

Accept My Salutations
The Lord of Creation
Accept my Salutations
At your feet I lie
Marvelling at your manifesatations
Bless me Lord
This is all I seek
You are known to be a friend
Of the weak and the meek
Your love knows no bound
I need your presence profound
Forgiveness is in your heart
Don’t keep me apart
From you I began
Now living in you
And at the day’s end
I hope to rest in you
Trilok Pati, Data, Sukhdhaam
Sweekaro mere pranam
Lord of Creation
Accept my Salutation
I remember helping my father type this book. Long hours at his surgery late into the night. He would write on old bits of paper and ask my to type it up.
I remember printing then he would cross out words, rewrite it a million times and then I would retype.
These are probably some of the best memories I had of him.
