Ravi Panamanna Poems

Once again a political war,
Life is getting marred.
Bombs are often blast
Shops by overnight are holocaust.
...

A COUPLET OF PABLO NERUDA HAD INSPIRED ME TO COMPOSE THIS POEM. COMPOSED ON 8TH OCTOBER 1980.
*****************************************************************************
Oh beauty! Thy face is
Slumber and pale so deep
...

My prostrations are unto thee,
Oh! pleasant mother earth, I leave thy inn-
...

Over the Western grassy lands
The evening sun sends a flying kiss.
My thoughts unto a distant land fly,
The sprawling meads of Scotland are seen,
...

A SCENE FROM A CHICKEN CENTRE. IF ALL THESE HELPLESS CREATURES BEGAN TO SPEAK.........

The grills are open
and we are free to escape.
...

AFTER THE EXAMINATION RESULTS. SOME OF US HAVE FACED THE FOLLOWING SITUATION IN OUR LIFE.
*************************************************************************

It was a moment of defeat,
...

It was just another dawn;
It was just another wind.
The streets were empty
And the town was silent in her voice.
...

From inn to inn, for long years
It was a gathering wind.
From morn’ to morn’, for endless decades
It was toil beyond all tales.
...

The autobiography of a dumping site
******************************************
Once upon a time
I was a Flushing Meadow.
...

Feeling for the winds of yore
The old man glanced at the fabulous river.
Sitting under the shades
He screwed up his beard in reflection.
