=============
Walking along the serpentine path
Deep inside a village,
I find on the earthen walls-
Carefully it is written -
' WELCOME '
………………
………………
In a posh locality, in city life
When I pass through,
I find on the entrance gate itself
Proudly it is written instead -
' BEWARE OF DOGS '! ! !

Reading your poem gives us distinct feelings about 2 different localities. One is so pleasant and welcoming, while the other is cold and pushes the traveler away. And a sign with so few words can turn us around and send us running down a different path. Very well written.
I have already read its Hindi version and that is beautiful but please let me say the true beauty of Amitava appears in the English version. It's nice.............10
