The Incredible Supaul Poem by Ratnakar Rout

Gone are those days when I was amidst of implausible tranquility
The world around me was full of serenity and as peaceful as a silent valley
It had a different fragrance that was amusing me throughout my childhood
With great surprise I was looking at the never ending fields eagerly
That was mingled avidly with the ever changing sky at the horizon
As if the sky had embraced the loving earth clad with parrot coloured attire
The earth was changing its costume from time to time and presenting
Her with different get- ups to attract her beloved passionately
My little quivering eyes were baffled by those wonderful sights
Which were imprinted in my mind since then?
Left all of them behind in the passage of time
Not even for a while I could recollect them from my
Memory lane once over such long years
I preferred to live a life on the other hand full of hue and cry all around
Surrounded by concrete jungles and din and bustles there over
Which now and then haunted me and snatched away my peace
And the most sought after due drop silence
After a long gap at this distant land I feel myself blessed
Long lost nostalgia peeped in to my mind when I walked down
The lonely streets of Supaul stretched through the luxuriant paddy fields
Looking hugely green and green only miles and miles
Wherever one sees almost every where
As if a deep green drape is spread over the beautiful mother earth
That reminded me my childhood and made me yearning for hours
I admired unequivocally the precious gift of God and His
Splendid creation on earth, the incredible Supaul
A wonderful place in Bihar which made me zealously to beg
For giving back my child hood admiration and pleasure.
