It was as if I took a dip and
I felt salt inside my mouth…nose
But then
I was beside the bus window
...
Kolkata...the name crawls underneath
My senses start romping;
My childhood, youth and love
Owe you this man.
...
Heart thomping
Blood pumping
In and out
Through veins and arteries
...
There I see you
Underneath the shadow
With enough security wrapped in the white box,
But I see you not
...
The evening begins to darken,
The sunlight goes tiptoed,
Northwind twilight sunken
And rest on you bestowed.
...
Hush!
Hear the confession -
Or else how shall we know
That he has forgiven none-
...
Through wavy rays
Some fishes pass
Under
Lake placid
...
