ritty patnaik Poems

a lifetime passed
in the assurance
of a good life.
...

i wouldn't invite pain,
if not for the love, of living.
like a vague, surprising memory,
finds its way, to my palm,
...

the big tide
will come one day
wash away,
all that we made.
...

i could not know her,
when spring came
and passed me by
while i was looking at the sky.
...

your coming, like a storm,
like a current of lightening,
vanishing, at a blink of an eye,
makes me sweat, looking for you.
...

i wish in my sleeping heart
you play the tune of love,
which i have been hearing for long
spreading and caressing my soul,
...

a promise to meet,
after a year,
went waste.
...

your image haunts me,
takes me to
another land.,
where moonbeams
...

in the season of summer,
synonymous,
sun baked soil
sweltering heat,
...

sun seeps in,
as i close my eyes
see glorious colours,
of the spectrum
...
