BELGHARIA
MADHABIBANDHYOPADHYAYA
I had set out with a beautiful vanity bag
Which PALAM bought for me to Belgharia.
Roughly drawn square on the ground
Playing EKKA-DOKKA
I had spent my childhood days at Belgharia.
Belgharia was myBrindaban then.
Mothertold me to go to the school without any dalay.
I had stoppedfor a while, there was a commotion.
Binapani, Nilima told me panting
‘Let us goMadhu, there is snake-charmer. Bequick'
I knockat the door
Roma baudi opened the door'
She astonished.
I said ‘ I will come again, Iam going to watchsnakes charmer
Just at the head of the crossing'
