Lovely!

Lovely!

Will it remain when the next petal falls or the winter covers a London in snow?

O Snow! Behold once she is frozen inside you!

In silence the lambs die

In silence the lambs die
We dine in silence
Do not we hear?
Around the cliff the Eagle is flipping wings
The ocean about to turn in waves
Yet in silence the lambs die
We dine in silence
Do not we hear?

In Emptiness

When no one is here to share my joy
And no one to share my sorrow
A sudden emptiness takes the reign
The joy vanishes, the sorrow dissolves
The thoughts drain out of my mind

Then the waves descend
I can only feel
Contained and comforted
Inside a sphere of a celestial

Sarah

The silence inside shadow will be profound!
Let me tell you
If ghost has forshaken your two eyes,
it may lament!

Inside me
I am lost in thought
I am hidden
Yet I can see
Whom?
You may ask me

And I silently ask the ghost to make a comment
The ghost then looks at the mirror
The mirror never lies
Yet Time flows
The mirror hardly cares!

Death! You have illumined my fate like no one before

Death! You have illumined my fate like no one before


Let it take a quiet sleep inside you

My resigned fate now needs a console

Let it take a deep breath inside your cold

Tell me where to go? Show me whom to ask?

Deliver me a shelter

Or a place to run beyond

Where you will not find me again

Will not descend in deadly murmur again

Tell me where to go? Show me whom to ask?

That Ferocious River

That ferocious river scavenging this earth
Brutal and merciless, her hunger obnoxious
Turning muds incessant,
fierce flowing waters;
Blistering blows unforgiven from her birth
That ferocious river scavenging this earth

That anger violent in the sound of fountain,
precipitous from a violent height, grey and abandoned,
in the mist of a cloud's hey,
amidst phosphorous drops of ray,
reverberates in angst gay,
bursts now in thousands foams,
like a cracker's joys in bludgeons
That ferocious river scavenging this earth

Mountain's grief

Have I ever wept on a mountain's grief?

The sadness so profound, yet so majestic
That thy strongest heart bore since thou wert born

What is so immortal in a grief that finds a spring to express?
Just a solace, an easing out of a pine

The greatest grief in this world
is sculptured on you

So thou stands still, watching forever
Whilst the rest of the world weep

So the river floats on God's tears
Whilst He mourns on thy grief

So the birds sing in melody
Whilst thy heart burns in pain

Dialogue

The Lone Star: Why are you looking at me?
Me: : For a soulful company

The Lone Star: I am so above, you are far below
Me: : My heart yearns for a distant fellow

The Lone Star: Do I not blink too often!
Me: : My pulse beats too fast, O listen!

The Lone Star: I am a citizen of a cold universe
Me: : My heart warms for you and will never lapse

The Lone Star: I float alone like a wanderer
Me: : I can touch your reflection on a dew's sphere

The Lone Star: You miss me when there is a day's light
Me: : You sleep so quiet in depth of a day's bright

The Lone Star: For ages lonely I am here
Me: : When I shall leave my place, I will be right there

Walking Side By Side

Walking side by side, hand in hand
one does not mind in walking together
on a path common, lying ahead
frosty dreamy, glowing in sunshine
if everthing can only be seen
in common eyes!
Walking side by side..


Who knows of tomorrow, of what makes
a village girl shy or a baby bird trembles
at her first flight
wings dance in so much joy
do not wish to come back on earth,
her earth! and flying side by side with winds of reckless freedom
her wings reckless, in sorrow with her earth
dreams captive, mind in despair
Walking side by side..

As more one pledges to walk side by side

A father who just lost his only son

' This is based on a true story that I read when I was a boy and a die
hard fan of football'

'What can be in a father's mind after he left his only son in a
burning ghat
at the bank of the sacred Ganges river? '

He took the ashes in a pot and wiped all the tears in his eyes
For the grief was too pensive for him to cry
any more

He once thought to give his life into that lonely river
To mingle with the soul of his son
His only son!

At that moment someone whisper'd in his ears
'Today is the IFA cup final betwixt East Bengal and Mohun Bagan'
A game of football that he loved since he was a boy
Like his only boy!
