The missus shrieked

with horror watching

and hearing in

disbelief and shock

catastrophe costing

three precious lives,

Macbook Pro laptop

wallpaper agonizing reminder

(though poem previously written

subsequently mailed to

immediate family relations),

I still feel numb

(albeit NOT comfortably)

reconciling inexplicable reality

with recollection to distill

their true value

when yours truly and kin

(sleeping spouse plus,

our two grown daughters)

lived on Greentree Lane

about three doors up

quite some years ago,

yet their untimely deaths

affect me weeks later

thus poetic memoriam

culled out and begged

express impossible mission

attempting to comprehend

profound loss community

of medical professionals

still must experience

stunned with grief

already latter half month

of August 2019 elapsed.

Though only casual acquaintance

husband/ wife doctors

Jasvir Khurana professor of pathology

and laboratory medicine

at Temple University

Lewis Katz School of Medicine

with a focus on bone pathology

and Divya Khurana (respectively)

a professor of pediatrics and neurology

at Drexel University

College of Medicine,

specializing in pediatrics,

sleep medicine and pediatric neurology

earned national recognition

as decades long leader in epilepsy

and mitochondrial disorder.

 

Nineteen year old daughter,

Kiran Khurana

youngest of two daughters

graduated Harriton High School

two thousand eighteen

in Bryn Mawr, Pennsylvania

sadly also perished

single-engine Beechcraft Bonanza

crashed behind homes

along Minnie Lane near

Morris Road in Upper Moreland.
