Pradip Chattopadhyay Poems

With change of season
He too changes for good reason
Time over but he still sees a chance
Young girls get his furtive glance.
...

Whole day I carry a burden of load in mind
A way out of this maze I desperately try to find
Rewinds it like a flashback in a slow moving film
Was he at fault or wasn’t I unfair to him?
...

You came
At the 5 o’clock dream
Sat with me for sometime
Touched once with your lips
...

You left your smell in me
It won’t go with the ashes
I would not let wind carry it away
‘you are in me’, it would say!
...

when i see the youthful faces
i feel a bitter regret
curse how time crazily races
rue things for which i'm late.
...

the day's weight and sweat
waits within
to come out the poet.
...

Lured by the bait of a golden trap
Got down on the road for one quick snap
Season’s harvest lay the gleaming yield
Pains of seeding sprouted fulfilled!
...

Had I been a poet river born
Flowed at ebbs to the sea
Fed on her shores fields of corn
On her face etched the sky gaily!
...

A mysterious crave entwined the air
in that moment all words were mess
when river breeze frolicked with her hair
sun pinked rose smeared her face!
...

They call me a workless guy
What they mean is worthless
Envious they're and that's why
Don't like my leisurely pace!
...
