DEEPAK KUMAR PATTANAYAK Poems

In the clouds
- - - - - - - - -
Blue is the sky
From east to west
...

Lighting a lamp
- - - - - - - - - - -
I wonder what it is
Lighting a lamp
...

Limerick-75
- - - - - - - - - - - -
There lived a friend who until yesterday
Remained bachelor despite being a good guy
...

New Year's Eve
- - - - - - - - - - - - -
It's a winter night
Above clear, cold moon
...

The thread of love
- - - - - - - - - - - -
Life leaves behind marks
And when I look back
...

Love is sweeter than nectar
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Love and affection are integral
Unthinkable they are
...

Haiku- New Year
- - - - - - - - - - - -
New hopes around
Rainbow in the sunset
...

A carefree life
- - - - - - - - - - -
Between the cradle;
And the grave
...

Tears die down and come back again
Not known how and when
And you boil and boil in pain
Until you are gone not to be seen again
...

In chains, though born free;
Until the day she was set free
Born to a nameless family
Afflicted with abject poverty
...
