Nirode Ray

The day he was born, and rolled his eyes
the minute he gifted you his first cry
you wept in joy and spell.
He flourished inside your womb
...

Inside a moving bus
her eyes gaze still
through the windows
to the calm glare of people,
...

Winter hasn’t yet gone
It is desperate and stubborn
And it is hovering on
It gulps all colors
...

It rains on tree tops
Beat splatters
It drops on green
Rhythm lazes.
...

Too many lambs on the road
Too much traffic
Please get out of the cart
Walk right on the cross street.
...

On way, from Calgary to Jasper
we came across a cub, a black bear.

It was a wintery spring afternoon,
...

It is winter here,
Cold and dark,
Frost bites the skin,
Cold bites bones bare
...

No moon, in sight, tonight, an eclipse
The dancer searches God, she is in bliss
Lovers creep on her body and along
God seeks refuge in her cleavage
...

The old man was basking
under the Egyptian sun
dry and sandy, ancient and calm
with his companion, a camel of two humps.
...

You show up
it unfreezes the sun
seagulls unwrap wings on the ocean bank.
Fragrance thickens on the grassland.
...

Mama
Why did you give me birth
to this world?
So cruel and unjust
...

The pain in my body evaporates in thin air
the blood in my veins fumes spread
the darkness collapses on the blue sky
the moon dangles on the horizon like a pebble
...

This is the end!
Like the Adele's song in “Skyfall”
Walter rests there near slain
like a warrior deserted in a battle
...

You abandoned me
in the middle of the road,
It was a stormy night,
Lightning was piercing the sky
...

It is a golden brown dawn
it is spring, snow is all melt gone
the grass is sprouting with weary patchy green
I wonder how it survived the harsh winter wind?
...

It is before dawn
the sun is still in bed
at the shore end
the sky lightens up
...

Hollow inside
It sounds shallow
Rain drops
That noise must stop
...

It follows the shadow
It wets the mist
It colors the color
It swings the wind
...
