THE GUILLOTINE

Sumanta Chatterjee

The way you destroy pimples

To smoothen the land

Or swat a disturbing fly

To scatter seeds of peace

Seem trivial altogether,

The more soft you are

The more cruelty

Felicitates the bloody wood-

On the verge of sadism

Head and heart stand apart

Like some paralysed smoke,

When the Guillotine strikes!

Catch the beauty
Sweet dew of eyes
Honey deep sighs
Under the dusky sky
The beauty I can't deny
Soul only shivers
Vermilion in fingers
Ecstatic Rhapsody
Catch the beauty


Sunset on blue

Sunset brushed scarlet red
on the canvas of the blue,
causing an illusion before
my eyes without any clue.
I had a laid-back sleepy feel
as I gazed out the horizon,
Rich and content I felt as
only I acquired the seizin.


Silent Night

In this silent night
the stars gaze out in the horizon,
"Why life is so short ?",
someone whispered, a true disparity.
Someone put the culprit in a box,
life is yet so beautiful;
She took all the insults in her hands
along with her magical melody.


The gibbous moon

The gibbous moon
as it smiles still up above,
when the horizon is colored
with the orange tint from the daybreak,
the sun is yet to rise......
The trees still hold the black and
wait for the sun to illuminate them
all over again as the golden light
will begin to pour down shortly over
the earth with a message of the divine.

Sweetheart of Delight

==================

Oh my sweetheart of delight,

love you truly day and night.

The day I first met you,

brokenhearted I found a nest, new.

You embraced me with your loving eyes.

You let me free back again to the skies.

You lifted my soul very softly

and adored me so very deeply.

I am moved by your slender attitude.

I offer you my love and gratitude.

Promise me not to break my heart.

From me you will never be apart!

2.

The Yellow Moon

===============

Last night I saw the moon beautifully

curved by an expert artist, unknown.

The yellow of the moon reminded me

of a canary bird sitting on a blue-stone.

Next to the moon shines an orphan star,

longing to touch her beauty, yellow.

The distance could not keep them apart

as there exists a bridge within the hollow.

3.

Soul Ecstasy

=================

Night is creeping in as

I look from a meadow.

Trees are whispering with

the breeze in the dark.

The distant sky goes

to deep meditation.

All quiet in the Earth!

The moon is the only

source of light and purity.

I see no trace of any mark

on her as she shines gloriously.

I along with the sky get dissolved

in this auspicious solitary moment.....

A harmonic soul ecstasy!!

4.

The Evening Sky

===================

The sky has turned to orange

in this beautiful sunset evening,

The sun is encircled by a yellow ring,

a rare and eye-soothing scene.

The darkness captures the valley

hiding all the traces of scars,

A tree standing on the meadow

prepares herself to write a memoir.

She spreads out her branches

towards the distant orange sky.

This momentum dissolves me

in a drunken hypnosis as I pass by.

You and My dream

The moon appeared distorted
almost like my dream, unclear.
Silence that only existed,
I stared for long with despair.
I thought of you, my beloved
as I sat beneath the tree.
But realized you are never there
as I only find none but me.

Light

How many ways I may give you light?
The sparkling light from the sun,
the mystic moonlight of a moonlit night,
the drizzling light of the morning dews,
or a candle light covered with much care.
Everything I kept for you my beloved.
If you do not wish to have let me know,
I will distribute and splash all the light,
I will let them float on the running water.
But I will not let you forget that I only
loved you to light up your dull puzzling eyes.


If Friendship Prevails

No more call,
no more beckoning from me
I let you free
as you let go of my hand.

But I know
that if friendship prevails
you be back
walking on the sultry sand.


The Horizon

The river is dazzling with silhouettes
of the lighted skyline with a blue sky.
My eyes wander along the pathway
and are lost in a beauty I can't deny.
My mind wonders along the riverbank
when all asleep under the blue sky.
The moonlit night casts a spell on me
as the lighted city line is held high...

The Vagabond Mind

The vagabond mind searches
the most precious jewel which is lost,
through the woods and red brick path
some day and somewhere.

The mind is stolen along with
the tides of that wild river.
The mind stoops in a drunken mood
along with the spring air.



Finding you

In the middle of a night,
I was in my love's flight.
The stars were weeping,
the moon was moaning.
The joyous hearts are broken.
The words of love remain unspoken.
Can I win you back again
and thus be free from all my pain ?
Love sparkled once more,
when I found you in my heart's core.

The tale of a fairy

She was playing "love me or love me not"
with a rose petal while sitting under a tree
next to the river in a beautiful rosy evening.

Her legs were spread wide in the grass.
She had a green skirt with black stripes
and a pink blouse top with floral designs.

The rainbow colors from evening sky were
being reflected from her expressive eyes
A lovely smile adorned her beautiful face.

The pearl necklace around her neck is
glittering in the sunlight like sparkling stars.
Her rosy cheeks which looks like the
sinking sun like the color of an an egg yolk
has created a magic surrounding her.
Her sleek fingers similar to Champak flowers
were taking out the petals from a rose
one after another hurriedly.
The sweat drops on her nose is shining like
the morning dew on a lotus leave.
The tufts of her hairs have covered her
pretty face which resembles the moon
surrounded by cluster of clouds.

O dear! Please go to your room
otherwise those mischievous
red vagabond clouds are going
to cast a spell on you !
What did you get dear by tearing
those rose leaves apart?
She replied, "What else?
Why should I tell you my secret?"
All right dear, then do not say and
I hardly care about your fantasies
O my mischievous lovely lady.


Rain and Existence

Rain, melting and dropping on the trees.
Leaves, drenched by the monsoon rain,
Sway with the wind, as if an organ is
Playing its notes, happily, rhythmically.
Some feeble and dead leaves fall of trees.
So sad, end of their lifetimes and making
Rooms for next generations full of youth.
Green, youthful leaves are drinking rain
And playing with the wind hastily as if
the game will be over soon, however
the game goes on until the final stop.
Slowly sun comes out through the clouds.
Dazzling sunlight spreads all over.
We are still here and alive and will enjoy
Every moment with our hearts full of love.
Love, the essential part of our lives is
Needed for all living beings in Universe.



Expedition

I walk alone by the sea..........
Leaving my footsteps on the sand.
The mystic night with the crescent moon
Show my way in the dark.
The shiny polar star calls me from
Far far away to visit its land......
I keep on walking through the gusty wind,
Through the beaming moonlight,
Through the sound of rise and fall
Of the waves to a country unknown.........

Your Thoughts

I am so very thirsty
due to hot sun-rays...
Hope I could have sipped
the nectar from your velvety lips...

I stare at your forehead
Adorned by a red dot...
So beautiful to look at,
My eyes eventually got frozen.

I have made so many attempts
To escape from your eyes....
Alas! I come back to them
Again and again.

When I think of keeping
Almost no distance
Between you and me,
I tremble for you, my love!

I am miles away from you...
I kept on burning...
I will at last become
A burnt charcoal....!!

I FOUND MY STAR


I looked out the sky...
I found my Star is stolen
In the deep blue of the sky.
I looked for my Star through
The shadowy trees and
Through the clouds...
I only saw the Moon
Smiling at me mischievously.

Suddenly a storm came,
The trees started swaying
With the wind .....
The Moon hid behind the clouds....
All dark in the earth....

After a while the
Storm has stopped.
The clouds started
Gliding under the sky....
The moon re-appeared
With its lovely smile....
Through the darkness
Of the shadowy trees
I found my Star
Shining with an eternal beauty...



YOU, ME AND THE RAIN

It's going rain throughout the night.
What if an ocean forms in your courtyard?
Do you know how to swim?

The moon has disappeared behind the river.
Strange! Why is so?
Isn't today a lunar fortnight?

My wounded heart has forgotten
All the poems I wrote.

There lies my canvas, blank,
Waiting to be painted.

The clouds are wrapping the whole sky.
Let it rain with the sound of ringing bells.
We will celebrate the rain together.

I will remember my poems once more.
I will start to paint on the canvas again.

We will start singing in the rain,
All our old songs once again.



FALLING IN LOVE


In my heart, I stare at you,
with my eyes I love.
As you come to me, I cherish
every moment that I have.
Upon finding you, I seem
to have lost my senses.
The romance has begun
only due to your grace.
You have made me happy
with your gentle loving heart.
I shift between pain and joy,
what a spell you have cast?
As I look at you, flowers
start blooming around me.
Every second becomes a
wild wanting, it is and it will ever be.



THE JAPANESE MAPLE

The Japanese Maple has bent
due to the lavish rainfall.
The plant is like a young lady,
beautiful and shy.
The leaves are reaching the ground
due to the pouring rain.
With her sleek fingers she is trying
to reach the ground
as it's her best friend.
Her deep red color is shining
deeply after the rainfall.
She has stolen all the red
from the red roses, rainbows
and has become a red fairy.
As I touch her, her beautiful
and slim figure starts shaking
shyly from my touch.
All her leaves start swaying
to the breeze.
She whispered in my ear and
Said, "O my friend,
I have found
my best friend and
that is why I am so happy."

THE IRONICAL DEFEAT
Sweta Nilanjana Bhattacharya 



everyone talks about religion
and i talk about everyone
if religion diversified us,
even i want to state that ,'i am God'
and would pontificate
about the new religion i create..
i dont wnt followers though
i would declare a war against the whole world
and you see them assemble and start a row,
come on fight against mem..
hypothetically you will win.
but the ultimate winner is me...
i stood alone
and united you all..
i accept my ironical defeat.
HUMANITY-i am a slave

THINGS FALL APART

Sandipan Majumdar



The things I felt
And , the things I liked
I discarded them
All into them
All into the silent womb
Of some alleyway
I drowned them out.
All into the insipid
Blue of a static bay
You see how the barren life,
Conjugates itself into the impotency
With an wound more profound.
I have been walking for years -
Throughout my empty regency .



Shadows in shades of a smog grey
Dance around a legend of a long last song.
A silhouette flutters among the dark
Of a juxtaposition of us,
Between the magician's floating mark
Trying to keep my soul, buried within
The comfort of your breast
I enquire a shelter, a place,
A nest for a conscience trying to take rest
But with a dempsey I display
That a gypsy has no home
Only a tired infinite walk
In search of mirage
Leading onto a dead and tomb.
