My memories rise from this rubble – My eulogy to Anand Bhavan.

Under this fresh pile of rubble,
Here in Secunderabad,
On Rashtrapathi Road,
Adjacent to the School where I studied,
Stood a landmark restaurant,
Called Anand Bhavan,
Which catered satisfactorily,
To over thousand a day,
For close to a century.
The restaurant is buried,
But not my memories of it,
I know not the reasons for this demolition,
I sincerely wish Anand Bhavan will soon rise here again.
