Chandramohan Bhandari Poems

Space Exploration

Grand Central, New York
Standing on the platform I look around, and find
...

Born again in stellar wombs
Each atom has a history of its own
With its bonding in molecules
Configured and arranged in honeycomb
...

Pendulum’s swinging periodic modes,
Chaotic spells too, short or long,
Link unfamiliar psy-states -
Baffled, rattled I walk along,
...

O, the enlightened one!
Why is it that the state of ‘nirvana’
is not transferable.
Each of us - even if willing,
...

Wrinkles line her face
She looks pretty old, much beyond her age
having lost much of her vitality.
Her diseased decadent body struggles to support
...

Hiking along the Appalachian Trail
Overlooking the Hudson at a distance
Mountain ranges all along the valley
Witness the river embrace the ocean.
...

Torn apart -
Myriad shattering bifurcations
And multiple reflections –
Each reflecting the cosmos –
...

Born again
Having lived innumerable lives
This time a bit different
Balancing on two legs
...

We are already too many
Numbers keep rising
Needs rise exponentially
Liveable earth shrinks.
...

Atoms of my body
and yours too
Cooked in stellar kitchens
at ten million degree
...
