Rathi Chakraborthy Poem by Suresh Kumar EK

Rathi,
Oh Chakraborthy
You are the real
Emperor in my senses
Of innocent expressions
And infinite passions.

When you smile to me
The moonlight spreads
Over the bluish eyes.
While laughing, oh Rathi
It is radiance around
The souls enlightened
Beside you the queen,
Float to another world
.
Simple, you are as the
Dimple, on your face
A spring is bestowed upon
Your blushing cheeks
The petals may go, but your
sweet fragrance still lingers.
I am confused, dear,
Perplexed and lost,
When you are serious.

And I don't know
Why your nails are
So sharp, maybe like the
Rose carries thorns with her and
I don't feel any pain, even if
It penetrates into my eyes
For you put a signature there
In my heart and in my soul.

I know it won't last forever
I don't care even if the intimate
Experience is lost and forgotten,
But I don't know the dear queen
What is overshadowing you now and then?

I can see melancholic shades of mood
Inner throbbings, clear not expressed
A mother's love lost, moves like the
The distant rhythm of Hughli river
Flowing beside your Chandannagar.
Whenthinking about you dear
I feel that river before me vast
Every day you are crossing twice
Ganga, the ever pure, receptive
Silent, calm, wide and frothing
Exuberant, deep, bluish and unknown
Radiating and reflecting lights to us
Cool, refreshing and unattached
Whirlpools of pure love and life.
