The Bus Journey Poem by Kishore Kumar Das

The Bus Journey



A bright sunny morning
gentle and cool air
view of greenery
by the window side
coconut trees with bunch of tender coconuts
jackfruits hanging in opulence
what a splendid texture and colour!
one can conceive the greenery of earth
through the wonderful jackfruit
half-ripen red and green mangoes
the bounty of nature
red hibiscus resembling the scarlet jewels
decorating the gateway of earth
neem trees purifying the air
for the mankind
banana leaves dancing in the air
welcoming the passers-by
the worship of life has just started...
day begins with the standing ovations
by the green angels
this is the food for relaxation
and there is no better food;
this is the feeling of heaven
and there is no separate heaven
the silent air conveys the message...
get-set-go.
