Poems : Ajitabh Prakash Chandra

Ajitabh 

(a vagabond. resides in Hyderabad , occasional writer and open to all sorts of literary explorations. poems question culture, tradition and values. )

Everyone returns.

You and I will return too in search of our roots,

When nothing will remain out of the faded and boring pleasures.

Then

beneath the same bargad tree will I return

Where my roots look dying and decaying.

they lay dying.

Where the songs of the spring

And the raindrops of the monsoon 

Once watered the whole city,

And where I have left the reason of my being.

There itself

 I will embrace my roots

And will get immersed in that water.

and i will be able to meet all left,lost and unfamiliar leaves.

The Fall

I wrote my love on the leaves of the fall

And accused the cold wintry breeze.

For losing them in the wilderness

As it is in its nature to carry away the leaves.

I recall those names carved in clay.

And blame the drizzle for its habit.

To wash away every colour 

To let only white remain.
