At The Demise - Of A Bird
The Spring came.
The green leaves
She spread along with
Fresh new air.
And an uncontrolled
desire to meet with
became eager
in all his branches.
But she did not
turn up,did not turn up along
with her twinkling
little smile;
And restive trees
restlessness at last
stopped for ever.
The baby girl called

her mother___
See mamma how beautiful
the bird is!with all its last strength
it looked up.
Shedding all her ornaments
Evening covered the
little bird with
goldlike affection
of immortality.

How dreadfully black
is the cloud !
What vision-erasing
tremendous Rains !
On the bosom of the
dense darkness
Lightning -- a symbol
of danger !
All will be quiet
one day doubtlessly.
But shall I ever see
the Sunrise?
Only once , once only.

I do not remember
when on an auspicious moment
the wheels of my chariot
gained speed__
a speed which reflected
millions molecules of
Light ,
Atmosphere became
full of vivacity
New Life came into existencethrough that violence of creation.
I got shelter,
I know one day
my island will be flooded ;
Where should I take
shelter in which island again?
Will I be alone at that time
8/8/2019 Dadu's Poems
6/66
in the cloudless blue sky?
Carrying the rays of
the setting Sunat which island
I will fly & fly to
have some shelter for rest?
Would I get my
Life Partner?
Would I get the
shelter of an island
surrounded by coconut trees?

of Eternity , the traveler
round thousands of light yearsof Time! We welcome you .
Oh, the new Soul!

with all desire
and ecstasy!

Just like
a broken-hearted
hungry skeleton tranquility called me.
I heard and heard
and then
I have turned myself
into an exhausted
half dead skeleton
I , therefore ,
want to leave this world
and move to somewhere
where I might discover
the Image of Silent Death,
a lying dead body.
And in that calm & quiet ,
Icy hill of North & South Polemay beckon to take rest
for ever & ever.

Pitiful lamenting cry
of millions
Surely enter into
their dried up bosoms
and make them terrified.
Times unchangeable
principle make them
terrified
and aimless thinking
tells heavily on
the murderers.
Oh God! Thanks full
of gratitude!
In their death
their limited airy existence
spread far and wide
8/8/2019 Dadu's Poems
11/66
through you as a centre
of boundless inspiration
them to spread far and wideall over the world.
Oh God!
we want peace
the peace that shines
like the rising Sun
spreads its soft shine
on paddy plants
and make the farmer couples
brightening face , the
peace that achieves permanent
shelter in between
the lover & beloveds
lips
and above all
the peace that
displays

In thy death
I gained life.
I did find myself out
In an unknown
ever alive condition.
I knew myself anew.
I found my life
where Time is endless
continuous Entity.
I saw , I came
to know
Thou art Continuous
and Immortal

I remember you.
Its as if like
an ice cold wave
which has come out
from the dense depth
of forgetfulness
Creates some
feeling of sweet air
in parts of heart.
Heart is never
an organ only.
Its the poetry of life.
Through the torn away
pages of life,
it brings inuntouchable but lovely turning from
some heavenly abode.

Today in this beautiful
morning
Touch of memory
made me woke up .
Across the far away landscape
cause floating an
immortal Swat song
lyrics started turning
Awoke the picture
The picture that life
is only an immortal
sensation.

O Lord , those who carry
on Thy message into this world
their dreamy lips
turn pale and
powerless.
Ferocious Death with its
cruel lash turn
their holy persons
a dreadful bloody sight
into this earth.
Innumerable people of
pain-struck earth become
a sight as if millions
& millions of diseased humanity
have beenbreathing their last breath.
O Lord!

Behind their coffins
follow the silent procession
of so called humanity.They are full of tears,
aimless symbol
of eternal poverty ,
But then too , they have
settled themselves down .
Where is light?
How far?
When?

Everyday I pray
Let me have success
in life .
I know not
whats the measuring
pick of Success__
Is it peace , or happiness
or Prosperity or honour?
When I wake up
in the morning
I repeat -- Success please.
When through my
ester window
let through golden
sunray on tomy bed
I get struck dumb
--Ah what a peace!
8/8/2019 Dadu's Poems

Time passes__
Sometime negligenceand dishonour
brings in a taste
of failure.
I pray again -- Success please!
Having crossed 60 long
years of life.
The pot of inner mind
has been heavy with
memory & experience
bitterness , injustice
complaints__ and
all around them , I
feel my heart with the
taste of joy and glory.
All are transient !
A moment before death
8/8/2019 Dadu's Poems

if the thought that I
have done what all
I had to do,I will feelI have
achieved success.
Now I am free.

Clouds bring in rains
and also carry
message of endless
pain of the ocean.
Thats why it sheds tears.
I am aware of that.
Thats why even now
when I suddenly get awake
my mind rushes
towards the Sea
with the rushing clouds
where I know once
I got fulfilled my dream.
So I shed tears !

Let the sea be foamy.
Let the high waves
make the hills angry.
And then ,
I may get a peaceful abode.
After a long search for it
seems I have become tired.
Ocean has no end.
Call of horizon
may be , made the Sea
a homeless vagabond.
May be , once upon a time
the Sea came to listen
the beckon call of an island
full of birds songsurrounded by beauty
of coconut trees.
8/8/2019 Dadu's Poems
23/66
Oh my Lord!
that island is no more
visible,And so the tired wings
of that bird still now
flaps and seek for
shelter in the dense dark.
Should I , at all , have
any shelter any day?
Have I not become
the symbol of stony
and stony mountains?
Would my heart ever
be like a vast pond
full to the brim
in the rains?
May be , the bird
with golden rays of Sun
on its wings will find
8/8/2019 Dadu's Poems

an island where it
will gain the peace of
eternal sleep.A.Chakraborty..

I could , not talk any more.
I remained silent!
Light of the eyes
came to an end
It became night altogether
for me.
No movement , no life
yet , I turned into
a lively corpse
for ever.

Dream moves on along
with white Kites
flapping wings.
Shineless Sun declares
Noon is going
to be over.
Birds of variety make
groups for flight
by the side
of yellow farming lands
towards their nests.
Then their come
white herons
under the red sky
as if a Rainbow.In the frame of
my mind the picture
is eternal.

So I feel exhausted
within the boundaryof four walls.

16Is the sky so little?
Is the air so limited?
Oxygen is at being
finished in no time,
but where is fire?
Long Long ago
one morning
the aborigin human
that sparked the first fire
of civilization,
ultimately Present Civilization
strangled it to
almost dead.
Even then
I dream
I dream of Peace ,
Truth and Tranquility.

17Your flower garden
does not attract
my attention any longer.
May be they are
still beautiful ,
but I do not feel
any reflection of
their beauty
on the screen of my mind.
What a curse it is !
Having you lost
I have lost my all
mental faculties.

Having Lost My Beloved
I am tired , half dead
at the beckon
of a hungry, tattered
skeleton like Peace.
I want to separate
myself at a place
of Peace
where under the sea
full of liquid poison
a drowned body may achieve
silent unmoved
atmosphere of Peace
in the icy hills of Poles.

White stars are bloom
in the garden.
I failed to enjoy them
ever before.
When I woke up
with the morning stars
in my eyes
My heart my self
remembered you
and from
under the clouds
just like a ray of Sun
came out your smile.
White herons are a-float
I perceived long ago-
Again I saw them a new.Surprising!
How the old sight was
still alive in my heart?
8/8/2019 Dadu's Poems

I , too ,want to survive

I seek for your shelter.
Myself fatigued both
physically & mentally.
Receive me
Embrace me
Addiction of red wine
should spread in
each & every part
of my body
and make me enchanted.
I want to witness my life
in the shade of your
lightening body.
Oh Saki!why wont I die at
this moment?
Why not Earth lose
8/8/2019 Dadu's Poems
34/66
its motion for ever?
And Time become as still
as the bottom of the Sea?Today or tomorrowI know ,
the Earth will lose its motion
and then we shall enjoy
ourselves with
all at ease.
I am still alive in that
very hope only.

Let me attain my
freedom in the
overwhelming light
of the great Universe.
Oh the Great Cradle
me like the tune
of the song ,
Let my expressions
be clear like the
turning of Lyre
while in the air moving
hither and thither
everywhere!
Cherishing the dream
of a new worldlet me have a new
birth in a novel
world.

With the advent
of a new civilization.
Let my self-sacrifice ,demolition and suffering
from odds be a success.
I am older than the
Earth
I am immortal
Under the wheel of
my chariot
So many worlds
got motionless and
were demolished and
got lost forever.
So let me open my
eyes in another world.

All tasks done for today.
I long for peace for a while.
I have received the signal
from the flapping wings of
home coming birds.
Every morning
I think
Now its time to take adieu
To depart somewhere
across hills and mountains.
I know nothing
about the princess
lying with golden and silver
sticks , by her head and feet.
I know not anything
of a store of gold and diamonds
8/8/2019 Dadu's Poems
38/66
in the royal palace
I do not know
like whirling hot dustwhere shall I settle at last.

Having lost one
I have lost
Everything I had,
as the desert
of the deserts
Sahara has lost
all joys of life.
The same I too
suffered burying down
all the joys of my heart
I have , as if , lost
all of a sudden,
what I had saved
in wealth and treasury of ecstasy
without knowingHow it had happened so.
Yet I survive , I am dynamic
8/8/2019 Dadu's Poems
40/66
in the infinite revolution
of the Earth
just like a skeletonof flesh and blood.

*The dream it Be dream for others-
not for me*
I like green
I like white
White covers all
Green is bright.
Black I shouldnt hate
If Black is kept by whites side
White gets brighter.
Make a comparison
between the two
and find the reality
Which is who.
Its all over with me;
But the world is there,
So I lived it and so I leave
the dream I cherished.

Approaching Darkness
Approaching darkness
Indication of Starting homeward.
But alas ! My home
is unknown to me.
I do not know too
who is waiting for me.
Is there anybody really?
Or dreadful darkness
waits for me?
Tell me what should I have?
Wouldnt I see a lady
like lamp light
She will be my guide
in this dense dark
airless world.

I have my past
I will have my future
__both like a dried up rivulet.
My present?
Bonny Skeleton
covered with a
dried up skin,
My past was an aimless
directionless whirlwind misdirected.
as if a picture of
a tormented dying animal
I desire to
brush away all that
__Past , Present , Future.
It comes to me__
let me turn intoa mommy of Egypt__
Lifeless , Static __
an exhibit only in the
8/8/2019 Dadu's Poems
44/66
market of the world.
And then waiting and
waiting fora volcanic eruption
my ghostly self
will be alive.

Today or Tomorrow
One day through
Lifes moving
up and up
I will achieve
Immortality .
That day Time will halt
just by the side
of myself
as if Mahakals
commanding word
Stop like
a violent wave
suddenly silenced
for good.
That day shedding theliving body
dying a death of
black -stained
8/8/2019 Dadu's Poems
46/66
adversities of
daily life.
That is the day
on which I shall achieve
immortality.
I want to reach that point
where the Time Movement
all have attained
eternal Silence
where covered with Peace
I get the Life beyond
the day to day life.
Oh Lord! Let my end come
at that Immortality.

Thronging black clouds all around.
Palacial walls around me
made me as if in a prisoned house.
Today I realized
what is the pain of captivity.
I thought I would open my doors,
and let the violent storm
would break into pieces
to let me fly high
over and over
where there is flopping
of king of birds Gadura.

That day I thought I would
start on my way.
Golden green Parrot will have
yellow dot on its forehead.
And, across the
milky sea of FairyTales
My mind will start sailing
across mount of Stones and pearls
and at last reach the
palace of Pasowati,
the Rakshas queen
in disguise of a Beauty.

There floats a face
in my faded mind-
a forgotten, beautiful
face.
It has become beauty of
never seen glorious Ajanta
and Ellora
The artist in me
in all probability
for ages crossing
over uncountable
revolution of earth
silent , unquiet
restless- and
bright with the dream
of creation..The unseen which
wants to be bound
by coming in the
8/8/2019 Dadu's Poems
50/66
light of a bright view
Oh yes! probably
it may express itselfin a totality and
completely expressive
in its entire form
in a sweet morning
or in a clear
moonlit night
or in my pain-struck
skin of mind.

Having crossed the
stony walls and hills
My mind rushes away.
The address of the
lovely princess
lying asleep with golden
and silvery sticks
at her head and leg side
is unknown to me,
I Know not
any giant store
of stones, pearls and gold.
I do not know where my mind
is likely to gainstationary stay
just like a hot whirlwind!

I am an artist
I draw pictures
carrying no meaning at all-
and no rhythm also.
They are only the
creation of an artist
of no fame-- only
some disturbing
sketches of no systematic
discipline.
Sometimes I feel startled
I call myself a
man being of distorted
personality.
I vowed I would
create something great .And so again and again
whenever I try to make
the abstract Beauty
8/8/2019 Dadu's Poems
53/66
a Reality,
I get lost in a
current of whirlwindIs it true?
Or I am not a failure?
One day my creation
will gain Spring
of Eternity.

If the sky could have the
capacity to speak ,
I too might have
endowed with
that skill.
If the air would be
alive
I would have been
blessed with life.
In a vast
world I remained
speechless without
any movement.
My lifeless mindbecame restless
with the pang of
expressing itself,
8/8/2019 Dadu's Poems
55/66
My Stony soul became
restless in its
endeavour tomove..
but alas! restless mind
became silent ,
the stony soul lost
its to move

Oh the Earth! Be a
bit more green!
with the light of
expression let
your dark bosom
be bright.

Lone bird!
Tired wings!
Colorless Past!
When did I start?
And whence?
The rising Sun!
The sinking Sun!
Where should I land?
When ? Can anybody tell me?
Oh! The twinkling eyes of night
Why are you so dark?
Forgotten path
Lost Horizonceaseless moving still!
The black clouds!

The torn sky
Helpless floating.
Ah! The island

At last I am
with thee.

Time is almost up
could no grow anything
fruitful.
A tremendous whirlwind
tattered all my aims
along with me.
What a creation!
Meaningless! worthless!
But I wanted to survive
to survive under the sky,
in the air trading
over field after field.
I wanted to survive
through eternity
in the form of fruit flower
and what not?I lost the power
of speech
I became silent.
8/8/2019 Dadu's Poems

Light of eyes
turned getting
dim & dim.I myself became

I became breathless

Oh! yes I turned
into a lively
Corpse.

On one remote
morning of first
creation---
the first man
of my liking
lit the light
in the yard of
the ill surrounded
civilization
---that has been lost.
Turning into a
dead body
I filled my breath
with the smell of
rotten Earth.Dream is still there
A heavenly sweet smell
I scent as if from a
8/8/2019 Dadu's Poems

long past & unknown future.
My fossil will count& count and wait
for that to come.

Hand in Hand
Speech Speechless
Heart full with
ecstasy
just like an
everflowing
rivulet full of
calm and quiet
Speechless emotion.
Alas! when I come
Back home now ,
where is She?
Heart trembles
Mind boggles
Where are you?Where are you?
Light that
visualize the
8/8/2019 Dadu's Poems

unseen
is no more there,
no , moreAnd never to come
again.

On the sight of Tajmahal
I do not know where
towards which sacred place
you boat still sails away!
Towards on the way to
a Star
still you sail still bright
your boat.
Just like dried up flowers
fallen down the branches
that still long for anotherspring - new , brilliant ,
ecstatic.
Oh the emperor!
you might have been
a traveler on the way
to Eternity-
It may happens so
8/8/2019 Dadu's Poems

Heavenly people
have welcomed you
with flowers , garlandsand well adorned lamps
that enhances your
imperial dignity farther
and farther.
Most beautiful ladies might
have thrown away their
extra special ornaments at
your feet.
You are immortal.
Your passage
never allows you
to stop.
You are ever bright
You are
immortal!
