Abhijit Roy Poems
Life’s a cycle,
Call it a wheel;
Thoughts being the spokes,
Your act being the deal.
...
Once estimated by the Sun’s position,
Father Time, now is coffined alive in an hourglass;
The sand-grains trickling down,
Within a female figure, ensnared in a wooden frame.
...
Four friends met up one evening,
To decide upon their next day’s rendezvous.
Saturday, being the following day.
Each was dead-tired from the week’s work.
...
Unbounded was his mind, that led him astray,
A traveler, a hitch-hiker had he become.
Had been a subject of wasteful youth,
Wishful thinking was what he used to nurture.
...
Down the alleyway, lived a little-known writer,
A fruitless year it was.
He used to write for magazines;
And this year, most articles of his were turned down.
...
An eccentric Math professor of the yesteryear,
Liveth with a penchant for his discipline;
‘Thou knoweth no reckoning’.
Was what he boasted of all his life.

The Best Poem Of Abhijit Roy
Ordeal O'Life
Life’s a cycle,
Call it a wheel;
Thoughts being the spokes,
Your act being the deal.
Partitioned into years, seasons, months and further.
That way does it get any better?
They say: ”Good things don’t come aplenty.”
O, why is misery attributed to bounty?
Embroiled into encumbrances,
You are dragged along some coast;
Neither do you board nor do you sail,
And the sands where you bled would leave no trail.
Agony is your demon,
You grovel at his feet to set you free,
He thumps your back,
And ever snarls to devour thee.
Your anger befriends you the best,
While in chains, you can’t even rest,
You gnaw the emptiness in your mouth,
‘Coz you are starving;
That you are about to quit is beyond doubt.
Your breaths and beats are dying down fast,
And this moment makes you daunt.
The wheel’s broken, spokes shattered,
Thoughts dashed, and the act undone;
You claim your share of soil,
After a lifetime of struggle and toil.
