Goutam Dutta Poems

On the beach, a bunch of boys
With a football, they toy!
Kicking it high in the air,
And following it, run like a hare!
...

The highland lass
doesn't sing anymore.
She spews profanities instead
As she stands by the road.
...

Happiness is in proportion to innocence.
A child's innocence lost is often lamented.
What has wisdom helped resolve?
Has experience made us any wiser?
...

The cuckoo calls!
Relentlessly,
Almost begging,
Cajoling,
...

He just left;
suddenly!
Swiftly!
In the middle of the night-
...

The rains this year have been quite heavy.
The clouds came in droves.
An army
In relentless pursuit
...

The Best Poem Of Goutam Dutta

A Lazy Goan Afternoon By The Beach

On the beach, a bunch of boys
With a football, they toy!
Kicking it high in the air,
And following it, run like a hare!
The ball is blown
by the strong sea breeze!
And travels in air as it please!
It plops on the waves in the sea,
Bobbing on the crest, as if in glee!
A few of the boys make a dash,
Hitting the waves with a splash!
With arms swiftly cutting the water,
Before the tide steals and takes it farther!
The sea water shimmered,
its surface disturbed by the breeze!
I watch, it feels like heaven!
And the ship, leaving harbour
sails into the red horizon!
