Sailor By The Sea



I scourged the oceans
Drifted into the sea
I was born a sailor
And a sailor I shall be

The bustling harbours
Where Porter's commute
To the gurgling anchors
And an officer's salute
I hear the water again
The sea beckons me
I was born a sailor
And a sailor I shall be

I have sailed to the rising sun
And when moon beam shone my way
I sailed the quiet sky
I sailed when typhoon sway
The compass swirled
To remind me
I was born a sailor
And a sailor I shall be

The Comoros Island
Where the blue meets blue
The sapphire land and the azure sea too
I spent moments of stare at the beauty I see
But steer away as Shanghai called me
The white ship sails
And I must agree
I was born a sailor
And a sailor I shall be

An Absence In A Chaos.......(essay)

 I shall be incorporating my bengali scribbles all written in English for all my friends and especially those who cannot read Bangla yet can speak and understand.


"Jhoro jhoro borishe Bari dhara
 Hai pothobashi....Hai gotiheeno.....Hai grihohara" 

It's been raining since three days now......What started as a surprise shower...Brought back the losing spring chill into the air.....While young and old argued global warming over steaming mud cups of tea and bakery biscuits.....Some simply resorted to the thrill of the wicked shiver of the down pour.

While the boshonto Utsav being right around the corner....Children gearing up with the latest spray guns and Gariahat selling all the variable colours to add the galore of the much awaited Holi.....The rain remains totally unaccounted for.....Yet people seem glad.....The deities recieving happy whole hearted head bows and prayers for the chills to last a little longer before the blasting summer turns the big bad goon and talk of the town.

It pours......and pours..... the​ clinking rain drops against the windows....The gushes on the road ......The shed curtains of water making visibility a difficult proposition .....the droplets ensuring cabbies dare loose their concentration while playing merrily on the windshield " I make u sit on the edge" game.

Looking out the window the drops against the pane making various shapes of spiders....Sliding against another to form a letter......Slipping to join make an animal.....Unmindful made me hum the lines.

A face makes a happy appearance and leaves with every blaring headlight illuminating the droplets into shining trinkets......A dazzle and gone!!!....Again the face among the faded darkness half lit, smiling....."kemon acho"....A wicked taunting smirk that gorges into a throaty giggle.

Sitting here by the window.....Still recovering from the cold feet that the dirty cold water happily gulfed into my shoes....A steaming cup of tea.....Such a contrast against the pouring coolness against the steaming aromatic waves.....Each daring the other from the either side of the window glass....Then both suddenly conspiring to bring my favorite memory back.....".Ki go chokotti".....and the throaty giggle......I smile aimlessly sipping on the steaming cup.....Embracing myself in an absent hug....Against a warm pot belly....."boroder bhurite haat dite nei"......I laugh this time.....Blowing much steam altogether over the cup to form a cloud in the rain cleared glass......An unmindful finger simply scribbled childishly....."miss you......"

Closer

Thanks to all of your fabulous support...my blog made it to the top 100!!!
https://blog.feedspot.com/top-100-writing-blogs/


Showers hit the pane high and low....
The clinking patters play
Not so long ago was I next to him.....
For the fragrance still lasts away.

To him it was playful.....
Glinting eyes yet to see
And yet the question lingers.....
Why were you closer to me?

The glasses dark n deep....
Hid the glint away
Did u not feel the skin...
The throbbing heart sway.

Where were you my friend.....
Close to me yet so far
The fluttering emotions....
Doors to soul left ajar.

The silent touch...upheaved emotions.....
The hand held warm n cold
And yet the question lingers....
Are you not told?

Demanding as I am....
Would brave heart the true....
The clocks ticking by......
Closer ....closest to you.

For You Are Ever Mine


The rains crept in the middle of the night..... unearthly hours when I lay in your arms
A crooning Melody plays behind.....the drizzle....the music...the panting rain.....adds to the mood

Fingers entwining each other's.....you know how mysteriously the gaps in mine fills with your....as if they were meant to hold them on such a night

The breeze blows strands of hair on my face......you raise your finger .....do not touch the fateful face.....it's for me to see and ponder.....
The fingers grow lightly on skin....taking it all the way back to my nape.....a hand which stands comforting.... closes the distance....

Eye meets the eye....the breath so close to bear....the lips seal in a silent kiss.....beating and thumping the heart to tear

There are no knights in shining armour.....but here you lay beside me motionless and still....
A breathing heart..... love n care.....tender touch and strong arms fair.....a protective embrace from you my love

Even the damsels can't deny.....not any knight...or the mightiest  king....can embrace n sink in tranquil sleep ....for you are ever mine.....

Tears

Need you see the light beyond....
Recall a past that doesn't exist
Crave for a human heart.... A body ....a soul
That was never meant to be yours
Fools rush in where angels dare tread......
Clouded eyes....a bit of reality that exist
Sparkling from your eyes....down ur cheeks.....
Happiness that's in ur dreams....

Night fall

The sun rises and se­ts in the blue
leaving a golden dust across the horizon
A twilight witnesses the dawn and dusk
But the night sky re­mains silent

The glory of the sun hides it all
with heat light and warmth
but the sky awaits
as patiently as the nocturnal soul

It rises again silen­tly yet beautifully
Spreading tiny specks of diamonds all ac­ross her face
The  crisp breeze pushing away the motionless war­mth
The land responds gi­ving up the heat

Lying on the cool gr­ass
resting my head on my arms
I smell the night
the coolness, the se­renity, the calm com­fort

Where she spreads her vast wings again
over me
over the entire cosm­os
a black lyre studded with twinkling diam­onds

Whispering in my ears as I doze off
"he is still there
and i am watching ov­er you both
Sleep my gentle ..

With you

Often in the stealth of the night
When the moon shines bright
I walk the road I walked with you

The dawn of a morning
The half lit park
I stroll the park...I strolled with you

The dew laden bench
On a winter morning
A lazy finger rubs the dew
I smile the smile .....I smiled with you

The hawkers tea
A steaming cup
The scent of the Brew...a refreshment so
I quench the thirst....I quenched with you

The calm waters of the lake
Feet dipped in the nippy stretch
A playful splash..watching the ripples grow
I throat the giggle...I giggled with you

Now that you are blessed
An angel giggles at your hearth
A Bonnie smile ....a toddling fairy that makes u smile
You smile with her .....I smile with you


Apostle's of dreams

If the wings were on me I wud fly where eagles dare to tread.....With u on my back in a spur of a moment glide thru the wet dry clouds slicing the wind to escalate the highest......N see the world from there....The ravines....Meandering rivers....Snow capped mountains mighty stand proud.....U wud as usual say in an uneasy way ....To leave n get back to the ground....i wud hug u.....Embrace u till the time u forgot the obvious.....none to see us here....rest my head on ur shoulder .....urs on mine....

Then in a magic moment sprinkle the pixie dust to reach the serene chandrataal lake.....The full moon dips at the lake on the darkest night when the spotless sky reveal it's true black against a milky white ash stained imperfect moon.....Standing in the waist full of water looking deeper into ur face my hands around ur neck urs around mine.....U wud as usual say in an uneasy way.......To leave n get back to the ground....i wud hug u.....Embrace u till the time u forgot the obvious.....none to see us here....kiss ur face

With a twist of Harry's broken wand will spin n rollover among the sands of Pharaohs...... Against the twilight of the dusky morning the shimmering triads hopelessly trying to making a shadow in the sands of time...... Giggling while we roll on the soft warm sand.... breathing upheaved on ur face urs on mine ....The Phoenix guarding over our head.....U wud as usual say in an uneasy way.......To leave n get back to the ground....i wud hug u.....Embrace u till the time u forgot the obvious.....none to see us here.....Engage ur lips with all the passion

A clap in the hand n clinking the heels of Bhooter raja shoes shall run laughing ...among the upper slopes of Rhine in to the dense foliage....Hiking our way hand in hand slipping thru all slopes the chill on ur back warmth in our hearts hugging with much yearning.....Where the noon sun plays a hide n seek thru the canopy of leaves glistening against the white Crystal snow on the highest branches of Scots pines oaks elm....Where once the Grimm fairy tales the ghostly Vikings wrote ....U wud as usual say in an uneasy way.......To leave n get back to the ground....i wud hug u.....Embrace u till the time u forgot the obvious.....none to see us here......Pulling u closer taking u in my arms me in urs engaging once more ....

Shaking the genie in a bottle command to take us to ground.....The ground where u wud stand....N I lie low.....6feet under......The ground as u wished....As I wished.....The fluttering hearts now apart....None to see...The eye of Phoenix....The haunting Grimm brothers....The scourging eagle eyes nor the light of the imperfectly perfect full moon shall not reach us now.....Yearning from beneath whispering ur name till the last shall deliver u the ground....At ease now ....None to see us.....Ever again....Love u....
