Somali Mukherjee Poems

When life gets stationary
Like a mossy stone,
When time feels like
A claustrophobic cul-de-sac,
...

'Life' is a short word,
But it means just everything;
It goes on and on.
...

The truth is firm;
It is always holy;
It does never harm,
But, is really
...

All our relationships are created
By God since our birth, but, we all
Can too make something, and that's friendship.
May our true friendship last forever!
...

None can hide your flair;
The gunpowder must catch fire
And make you shine through.
...

You began to write the history of your life
With a kind of fear;
I know not why you are so great;
O, Helen, to me, you are so dear.
...

It would have been even more splendid,
If a fountain had started to flow,
Through the titanic mountains afar,
Wrapped up with pure, white snow.
...

Constant Corona-fear
Sets us all in tears;
The dirge at us leers;
O, hear, O, hear,
...

The shower of sapless leaves,
Dancing in the midst of them,
My deep despair do they cleave;
I'm never more the same.
...
