Pradip Chattopadhyay Poems

A cruel reminder of the passage of time
Is the old utility bill.

This day last year
...

for one step forward
reach one grief
say one kind word
for a moment's relief
...

What beauty lies within your poem
how they me enlighten
in me burns their undying flame
make me forget own pain!
...

Often I wonder when I closely look
See her eyes a little too small
How love grows in my heart's nook
What is it makes me for her fall!
...

I sit alone on the pond's ghat in this rainwashed noon.

Her ripples dead
She ruminates once more
...

With her grandchildren on the seashore
where the sky has mingled with sea
a rumbling she hears over waves' roar
...

the red girl turning blue
means she's falling for you
displays her love's basic
your charm has done the trick.
...

Cuts the midday heat's eerie lull
the knife cutter's call...

from his pedaled wheels
...

slosh slumber river noon
dumber life behind
skim fishing gull's croon
poetry far from mind!
...
