Bijay Kant Dubey Poems

In When Grief Rains, the poet in a Jane Austenian way
Takes to human grief, pain and sadness,
A look at the smaller poems of the thinner collection
Shows grief distilling as drops of despair and gloomy sadness,
...

For quite a long time, since the days of my childhood
Which spent it
In searching,
Searching and searching so earnestly
...

I see winter wrapping the wrapper of
mist, cold, chill, frost and fog
moving away
under colder nights of gloom.
...

The history of earth
know I not,
how old is this earth,
how old this creation!
...

A huge and magnificent statue of the Mother
You come and go seeing,
Have you, have you seen Her, if not go and see?
...

Shashi Tharoor, I used to hear about your books
And used to see them,
But novels interested me not
As I could not them patiently,
...

One who does not know to talk with others,
How to behave,
That rustic fellow from the countryside,
I mean the hamlets and thorps
...
