Ravi Kopra Poems

On the cremation grounds
The body of a dead man was turned into ashes
Except his skull, his hips and knee joints.
...

Many complaints
Many dissents
But I never reproached you
...

vo bhi waqt aaey ga
jab khushi se aone darwaazay par
apna swagat karo gay
chehra apna sheeshay main dekho gay
...

how can you ever erase from your heart all of my memories?
try it and see if you can forget me

lovers in pain do not feel lonely
...

Watermelons
so juicy, so sweet
I always loved them
...

When the plant grew
To my shoulder's height
It bore flowers
White and soft
...

My eyes already touched you
You were standing by the fountain in the park
And I, far ahead in my thoughts of you
I said to myself: she is my love
...
