The Pre-1947 Period Of Indian English Poetry Poem by Bijay Kant Dubey

Where are they, where their books to be found,
On which dusty shelf or rack of the library,
Where those collections of yellow and pale pages,
Where those poets,
Can you tell me about them,
The pre-independence time practitioners of nondecript poesy
When it was not Indian English poetry?
