An Ode to Adithya Pasupuleti



An Ode to Adithya Pasupuleti



Young and dynamic, smart Adithya
Tears rolled down seeing him laying still
A Mother’s loud cries drenched us in pain
What a cruel way for heaven’s gain

Life is nothing but unpredictable and vain
When the soul of the spirit is gone away
All of 27, galore with achievements
Tall not only in physic, but in thoughts of innovation
Striving for research and technology 

Adithya spent his young life chasing his dreams
Bringing in a change with his research and innovation
Made his mark in the startup community
And gleamed with success as young entrepreneur

Winning a glorious jugaadathon, pride for his parents
Creating jobs for talented youngsters like him
He was on his way to economic innovations
When a sudden bus accident snatched away his life

Friends and family stood in shock and grief
Father who was composed broken beyond control in the end
Younger brother inconsolable with the cousins around
A beautiful life came to an unimaginable end

May Adithya Rest in Peace to heavens rejoice!
God, give the courage to the family to bear this loss
God, give us the strength to celebrate his life!
