Words Poem by Bijay Kant Dubey

Words, a combination of syllables and letters,
Enjoined or dovetailed,
Forming a word or words,
Which indicate what
The signs and symbols meaning out

And as thus starts the history of writing,
Putting sounds and speeches
Through signs and symbols,
Meaning out

Hiding within the meanings
Of the words,
Written or signed,
Carrying out some meaning.

Word, the word,
Which came it after sound and speech,
Sign and symbol
And it inculcated pantomime.

The child shrieked,
The fox howled and danced
And the wild bizarre
With trumpets and roars.

The morning sea of silence
Breaking at dawn
With the birds chirping
And the lotuses blooming.

The word,
How to relate it,
The origin and history
Of the word.

The word
Of syllables and letters
And all these
As signs and sounds.
