Ravi Kopra Poems

a flock of swallows
flap wings like an air ballet
singing peeh peeh songs
...

agar tum na hotay
to main mar gayi hoti

agar tum no hotay
...

What do you think, asked
my love, on the beach yesterday,
thinking of love between us,
that women look for in men?
...

I'm in love with you, I realise your despair
When you do not see me eye to eye.
And when you do see me, you smile
And confess this to your dear friend -
...

You played with barbie
dolls in the backyard
near the peach tree
by the back wall.
...

If you swoon in my arms
I'll give you breath of life,
pouring my soul into you.
Your soul will meet mine
...

I had a boo-boo
on my pinky. Grandma kissed
it. All pain went away.
...

Let us relish the pleasures of life
Whenever wherever we have a chance
You'll be buried with your strife
One day anyway. Eat, drink and dance.
...

Thinking tomorrow you will come
I am lost in you today

Recalling wonderful times we had
...

You ask me
why do I love you

First the historical reason
...
