Srutimala Duara Poems

Dawn cracked and morning fluttered out
spreading its grey-blue wings.

The boy who lay on the footpath

Through the window
I looked at the rectangular world
The tree stood, making the grey skies a dappled green
A little yellow bird sat restlessly on a sloping branch

Red lips lined eyes
Cracked soles along narrow paths
...

the jingle of bangles on a bride's hand
the hopes she brings knotted in her
brocade anchal
the creaking of the beds, the moans and groans
...

The night sky a deep grey
In that grey the deer wanders
away from the moon
The tulsi tree grows

The Best Poem Of Srutimala Duara

Between The Blooms

Dawn cracked and morning fluttered out
spreading its grey-blue wings.

The boy who lay on the footpath
by the garden fence of the mansion
stirred and promptly sat up
rubbing his eyes
The night queen that flowered under the dark sky
gazing at the boy through the fence all night
shut its petals and drooped
as the morning glory unfolded in the soft sun

Broomstick in hand he walked to the tea stall
The day had begun

Cleaning the stall
washing kettle and cups
running between traffic carrying hot teacups
he forgot his own cup of tea

Between the blooms of the morning glory and the night queen
Little feet run and run to adulthood
