Pradip Chattopadhyay Poems

The rain
All on a sudden
Poured in glee,
It kissed the windowpane
...

I have it in my dreams
The shadowy bus stop
On a nowhere zone
Where nobody waits ever for a bus,
...

Her wings not willing to fly
Her heart heavy
She gave it another try
It was her baby.
...

You might as well say
if a mail could aver
you needn’t have come her way
you needn’t have come this far,
...

The woman I romanticize.
Her abode is not in my mind
She has no place in my heart
Her face is not in my eyes
...

No verbal duel
No war of words
I prefer to be a poet.
In freedom I dwell
...

I blew bubbles in the air.
They weren’t robust
Pretty soon they burst
And were no more there.
...

Prosaic
Finds solace
In poetry’s grace.
...

Wearily reclines the midnight moon
Stars dreamily wait to fade
The nightjars somewhere sleepily croon
My eyes slumber doesn’t invade.
...
