Pradip Chattopadhyay Poems

Whole day their wings ache for the sky
Their eyes thirst the moribund blue
But here they are and will be till they die
Without ever knowing why.
...

At the worst of times
See me through
Rhythmic rhymes.
...

Here in a sleepy hamlet
in the shadow of Top Hill
amid barren aridity
I am hiding.
...

The son vents his suppressed anger on dad
The father should know he’s no more a lad,
He’s a man that needs his own space
To lead a life at his own pace.
...

You quietly look down now,
Ashamed you were too careless
When you crossed the road,
Too keen to go the other side
...

Veiled in the night’s mistiness
Her rivers flow wispy white
The earth shines in her grace
When the moon comes at midnight.
...

One last time I drive past the pinewood
On the fogged road washed with rain
My eyes misted up in melancholic brood
If here I would ever come again.
...

Living in the same stretch of forest
He was suffering from acute boredom
What came to his mind he knew best
The animal decided to leave his kingdom.
...

how do you go about it
when you write a poem
scribble on a piece of sheet
then think about a name?
...

village girl pillage mind on the first sight
hazel eyes gazelle runs hair dark night

barn's smell holds tale fathomless deep
