POEMS by AKLIMA ANKHI
THE COLOUR OF SEASON
With seven colours of Rainbow,
Six seasons keeping me awake
Keeping me amuse
Giving me excite
Illuminating me
Throughout the whole year.
When Summer Solstice Sun is on her head,
Delonix give smile with a crimson glow.
Green coloured eyes of Rainy season
Paints the purple colour pain.
Autumn as a girl,wearing blue Saree
Fills up selvage with Nyctanthes.
Dawn's light of Late-Autumn
Glisten with sunshine.
Yellow Chuddar of Mustard Flower
Coddle the winter body.
Ravishing colours of Spring air
Outbreak the desolate mirthless
Where blooming bunches of Red-Palas.
Sparkling land gifted by the Majestic Sun
Which is my center of soul–
Prying from the safe distance of hard
Ice or warm desert.
THE FAT-HEADED MONSTER With shouting the fat-headed monster announced - It is he who is the reservoir of strength and beauty- Brother of the Himalayas, Lover of Aphrodite! Ice block shining in the sunlight on the top of the mountain was made the crown of his success- Ocean water is blue It is seen only by his eyes! The piece of black cloud was swallowed whole To chase away the darkness of the world- Only the wind would shake him, Made him tremble time to time- He sweated as like as unwavering Aconcagua's body and grinned - Even if he was toppled by a small kind of earthquake, Getting up quickly would shake off dust As if nothing had happened - One day when he was bitten by a snake of Behula-Lakshinder, In the fallen head with fascinated eyes he witnessed- The sun is captive in dewdrop.
