Poetry from Dr. Prasanna Kumar Dalai

THE TALK OF THE TOWN

My morning has already come smiling

New dreams even with eyes wide open

An indication that happiness is lurking 

Radiant morning and uplifting breeze 

Being drenched, she runs into my arms 

An angel with lovely tune of her anklets 

The talk of the town is soft and smooth 

Though old, fresh seem conversations 

Beyond all thoughts this life moves on

I am a bud blooming at your first sight 

Find myself dissolved in thy love genuine

And I would love to find my muse in you.

QUEEN OF THE NIGHT!

The mystical moonlight of forest 

In the coziness of shadow and mystery 

In the dreams of body and mind

The lady night comes to sense

The loving swan is lost in her dreams

Returns with the songsters of spring

When the sun sets in the evening 

On the path covered by canopy of trees

With waves of the fascinated ocean

The flute keeps on giving her a call

Queen of the night looks for her beloved

Here is the holy echo of the tunes.

 YOU’RE NOT MINE!

We were walking hand in hand and

You got stranded in the rain again

I was somewhere lost in my dream 

You went farther away from me then

Know not if I can keep up your pace

You were my life just for a moment 

Then you made me grieve for lifetime 

My heart got shattered the very night

To me the wet face was worth seeing 

I often smell you and your memories 

I do feel like having you by me forever

Those memories and journey so sweet 

So haunting I can hardly escape them

Perhaps it caught the sight of evil eyes

My lips were silent but cried my heart 

Though awaiting, I could say nothing 

For I consoled myself you’re not mine.
