Epistle to Prioty
Chandan
I sigh for you
If you were my girl friend
I have seen you in my queer dream
I have seen thy black hair,
Deep black eyes through my imagination
O thou, whose sweet voice over
My phone will never cherish from my mind
Every time I utter your name
In the name of love
Night after night I think about you
O thou, whose inspiration has been
The radiant light of stygian night
Yet your song comes native with warmth.
The prey
Atika Chowdhury Cherry
A glittering dove was graciously walking
In the blistering land alone;
Midday sunny waves were swinging
Over the vast region.
Cautiously the bird was taking all steps
Near where she might have a nest.
Or she might pass a dreamy moment
Looking for a bosom friend.
An isolated eagle from unlimited blue
Determined to hunt the bird to consume.
However it lowered its nose
With a strategic pose.
Slanting its body like combat air plane
To hit the bird with sharpened nails;
Like a wolf pursuing a lamb.
Trembling, I closed my eyes.
