DEEPAK KUMAR PATTANAYAK Poems

The pearl
- - - - - - -
Sometimes cramp
Sometimes spasm
...

Hospitality
- - - - - - - - - -
It was a fine day
Early in winter
...

Necromancy
- - - - - - - - - - -
When I look back
Wistfully upon days past
...

An end with no end
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
More I desire the less it seems
Sought it in charms of beauty
...

How Much is Enough?
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Proud lips curl at her sight
Mind of ease robbed at
...

Maternity
- - - - - - - -
Silent and sublime
Descend wonders
...

Love and Art
- - - - - - - - - - -
So overcome is a love-intoxicated man
That he pours the wine unto the cauldron
...

When sun touches the morning
His dry lips stammer to say something
Hardly perceptible to the outer world
And hardly audible to near ones heart loved and revered
...

I am just immersed in a pond
The depth of which scares me not
For towards its edge of life I could swim
And river is my solicitude
...
