The Train Poem by Sankhajit Bhattacharjee

(I)

The train has stopped.
It has seen the red signal-
perhaps the line is not clear.
But it has stopped for a while,
it will move again, it will reach its destination.
It has a powerful engine,
which will drive its compartments towards the terminus.


(II)

Destiny has forced me to stop.
But I have a spirit-
this spirit will force me to reach my destination-
I do believe.
The red signal will soon turn yellow, then green...
the road of my life will soon become clear!
