Adil Jussawalla, I Saw You Far, Recgnized The Voice Poem by Bijay Kant Dubey

Adil Jussawalla, I Saw You Far, Recgnized The Voice



Adil Jussawalla, I saw you from far,
Recognized the voice of yours
Among the caravans,
Searching the no-man,
Getting acquainted with
Land's End, Missing Person,
England viewed from the Dover Beach,
Bombay viewed from alighting
At Santa Cruz Airport
While landing down from
A sojourn in England
With the graphic architectural pen
Trying to make
The topography and cartography
Of it
Which gave shelter to so many
From different parts of the world
War ravished and ravaged
Telling the Partition tales
Of woe and misery,
The Tibetan refugees coming
To seek shelter.

Just as Wordsworth you viewing
From Westminster Bridge,
As viewed Blake
In London,
W.H.Auden talking
Of the island scenery
And the sailing of ships,
Addressing, look, stranger,
You broke the lines,
Intermixed with
To tell of city-life,
The heartbeat and vibes of it,
Your global qualms and fascinations for,
Taking us to Geneva, Iowa and so on,
A poet of Eklavya and Karna,
You turning too Mahabharatan tales
With the turns and shifts
In thoughts,
Sailing in the ship
And floating on sea waters
Telling of Bombay.
