A Bard Of Beauty Poem by Shukdeb Mazumder

Shukdeb Mazumder

Regardless of whether you
love me or not
I always try to untie your
beauty-knot.

Beauty in your suspenseful
smile and eyes,
beauty in the expanse of your
dress that flies.

Beauty in the twist of your
vanity and modesty,
beauty in the transition between
misery and hilarity.

Beauty in the mystery betwixt
love and loathing,
beauty in the words coated with
bareness and clothing.

I endeavour to understand
all the beauty,
like an aesthetician I
perform my duty.

To be mute before beauty is a sin,
I am a bard of beauty and so sing.
