A son of the soil, an Oriya by birth and rearing,
His mind can go nowhere

Rivers, hills, sea beaches, forests,
Lakes, bird sanctuaries,
Historical sites and scenery.

A Summer Night, The Temple Road, Puri, the poems.

At the Burning Ground, Dusk, Sun Worshipper Bathing,
Sanskrit, Shrines, At a Ritual Worship on a Sunday Afternoon,
Servility, Bazaar,5 P.M., Old Earth, The Indian Way,

The Beggar Takes it as Solace, Living,
Among the Trees, Fragments, in follow-up to them.
A Poem to Mahatma Gandhi, Story at the Start of 1978,
Sky, Strike Your Secret Earth, The Stranger,
Movements, Walking Home at Night,
The poems of their trend, type and tenor,
A poet of poverty and hunger,
Belief and disbelief, faith and doubt,
Human lust and greed, twitches of the selfish body,
Things in a flux
And indifferent time.
