Prof.Hrushikesha Mohanty Poems

A Big gate stared at me today
With its protruding long tongue
Guarded by branching out trees.
Awkward at stares and giggles of waiving branch
...

If you say Wah! Wah! To everything I do
even though I like to hear it
but fear of long dark hands of ‘wah wah’
that may drag me
...

I don't know why,
Why it's so, when I see
At your eyes find mist and mist
Mist everywhere, mist in eyes.
...

Let me learn to unlearn
Let me do to undo then
Full cycle life is to run
My days the sweet puffed bun!
...

Today the Sun is dim and so also my pupils
and I'm threatened in my despair; it swears to stay with
unlike before. Henceforth, I will succumb to
and shrink to shell; stopped boarding running town bus
...

||| The Flame |||

Looking at the flame I keep wondering
Looking at the flame I keep you asking.
...

Pristine white cloud floating in open sky
Hanging bats latched on
Spreading dark skinny wings
Paint slur on the cloud
...

Lilly shot down moon
Tortoise whisper spreads
Sun hid all flowers
Morning broke the news.
...

On This Day
This is a English Version of the poem 'Ee Tithire'
published in Surjya Prabha Odia daily on 12th July '09.
-----
...

Those eyes I see, always remain unseen
When I peep in and in - I see nothing;
Absolutely nothing: no color, no question,
Not a bit of wonder even!
...

They come and on their way they go
Time makes many myriad of flow.

The flow is made to wash away
The image of today melts on its way.
...

IN MID OF NIGHT

THROUGH MY WINDOW STARTED COUNTING
THE STARS THAT I COULD SEE.
...

They all landed on my window sill
With peel of laughter in dark silence.
I woke up to ask them why so
In my drowsy innocence.
...

14.

Wish to sit here far from hustles and bustles
To watch you for myriad of meanings.
You remain untold
You are amazing in manifold.
...

Have been waiting since long
Long for me atleast.
Too long it's indeed to wait,
To wait for a glance -
...

Sitting with hundreds of years of solitude

I'm among the rocks
...

Measured the distance
Between lips and cups!
Measured the distance
Between mine and your's
...

||| Where are You |||

Where? Where it is?
Where your heart lies?
...

19.

||| I KNOW |||

I know
Hundreds will rise with hoods of hates
...

Waiting Since long, long it's for me
To wait for a glance you reveal,
(in dream) You reveal like a lotus around
Around me in and out pervading!
...

The Best Poem Of Prof.Hrushikesha Mohanty

Stars Grounded

A Big gate stared at me today
With its protruding long tongue
Guarded by branching out trees.
Awkward at stares and giggles of waiving branch
Found few stars hanging.

1,2,3...
Kept counting
They appeared and disappeared.
Disappointing to judge how many were there
for sure.

Whatever could be, true
I found them there.
Hope you can see those
On every possible corners
Even daring out in Mid-May Sun.

Take a pause to count
And if you can pocket those
Like Cricket heroes
To cheer on billboards.

Scramble for stars here on grounds today
You need not look high for
Unlike Dhruva's meditation of yesterday
Bend to knees to take those away.

Stars now graze on ground
Where flowers have disappeared.
Dhruva has shied away at falling stars
Seeing those stuck to everybody collars
Who cares for Dhruva of yesterdays
When today itself is anonymous.
