Debasish Mishra Poems

Clear like sunshine,
Sweet like nectar;
One who gets the mother's love
Is, in fact, a true victor.
...

They say I am a poet
Endowed with the wealth of words.
I smile gently
Hiding those things that are inherent in me....
...

I never knew the reason -
The actual reason -
For the sudden twist of things...
My love was true, my heart was pure,
...

So pleasant these are...............
Like dew drops,
Beautiful like the rainbow,
Or a rapturous rose playing with the breeze
...

Don't allow that precious dropp to cling in your cheeks,
It lessens your beauty, I swear,
You look so beautiful
With that inexpensive ornament of a smile...
...

It absorbs everything...
In its limitless bosom.
Temples and tombs,
Man-made barriers...
...

The brevity of happiness,
The short span of smiles...
All good things in the world are transitory
Like Life itself! ! !
...

A little insect
That creeps and crawls desperately...
Misled by mirages,
Overwhelmed by transitory happiness,
...

In a corner of the shining city......
Sleeps the slums like ultimate curses...
Fragile bodies- bare and black
Distorted by the doctrines of Fate,
...

I have built a Taj Mahal
In my heart
Simply for her
And another one
...
