Womb Of Earth Poem by vidyut chakraborty

Maa........
A chilled cry come out
from the womb of earth,
Thousand laughters burst around
at last she is flashed.

This tiny bud thrives to survive
in the protracted sunshine,
The two leaves protect her
from the storm, rain and mankind.

Then youth blossom and giggle
from neck to toe with fragrance,
Someday come some 'Lochinver '
to win her own
love laughter and romance.

Time takes its own wings
glamour of love fades
'Lochinver' turns to be 'Shylock'
and claims the 'pound of flesh'.

The nails of butcher itches
the pink petals of the damsel,
her world falls down to ocean:
dowry dagger and diesel.

Maa...
A chilled cry come out
from Greens to Grave all spread,
not a single hand helps her
and she is dead.

Hate those hungry leeches
from the core of your heart,
Let thousand flowers blossom
from the womb of mother earth.
