A Sleeping Giant...

It was cold, cold as hell.
Wind was blowing hard, and the ocean had a fearsome swell.
Something was wrong, a troubled time ahead?
Was it just a tide, or a disaster on wait?

It was a winter morning, everybody were indoors.
The harbour town was bit too clam, yet to set its course.
A sleeping giant after a long slumber, has somehow come awake,
Its constant roar and chilly breath, made the dwellers shake.

Minutes passed, not much changed,
Except for the ocean, it looked even more enraged.
Suddenly a shudder, soon everything was drenched,
The sea engulfed the land, the monster had the land claimed.

A Tidal wave? This much strong?
Or a rough weather, was the forecast wrong?
Whatever the cause may be, nobody cared.
Danger was on the loom, people were scared.

The news at last came, it was a cyclone.
Powerful enough, to blow a palatial home.
There was water, water everywhere.
The ocean still gave, a threatening stare.

Pandemonium struck, relief was on the way.
The fear indulged, was too hard to sway.
The storm was at last over, the skies got cleared.
But the coastal lands, were forever smeared...

Dreams, That Can Change The World!!!

Have you ever wondered, if the world was in your hands?
If you had a robot, smaller than a grain of sand!
And you could see such things, that others could not gauge.
It would be such a splendid feat, in this global stage.

All of us dream day and night, of glory and success.
No matter how much strange they are, the figments are endless.
Building Castles in the air, may be a futile quest.
But these embankments make us smile, when we aren't at our best.

When we are down, when we are lost, when we are morosed.
Dreams are such a wonder gift, that have been upon us bestowed.
They can lift our spirits high, in a shadowy realm.
They can even give us will to live, avoiding a certain doom.

The world in which we lead our life, may be full of shame.
But one who dreams and acts them through, can lead us through a Path of Fame.
People may throw stones at you, call you a lazy dreamer.
Just show them what your dreams can do, and it will be worth to remember...

Festive Time...

Starting from the dawn,
singing all the day.
It is Christmas time,
and we jingle all the way.

The festive times are here,
there is hapiness in the air!
Time to exchange gifts,
Just forget all the rifts.

Hear the clock tower chimes,
count it, it's twelve times.
Watch the pole star glow,
Santa's about to show.

Anytime, he will be here,
with presents, that we desire.
Release the child in you,
play in the heavenly dew.

Boxing Day is next in line,
Fear not, this name is fine.
No one's going to be hurt,
cause its not about the punch and cut.

A week of joy and grace,
Sweet words and warm embrace.
With a bit of pain in heart,
cause an ending is about to start.

Time to bid goodbye,
Goodbye to the good old year.
May be with a bit of gloom,
and by shedding a drop of tear.

Time is like sand,
it just slips from hand.
Whether it's good or bad,
enjoy it, and don't be sad.

The mystery that unfolds,
the fortune that the future holds.
Lets cherish the past so dear,
And embrace the coming year...

When Memories Haunt...

Walking alone, through the unknown woods,
right past the Redwood and the Ebony hoods.
Far away from the world, the world that I know,
I got mesmerized by the exuberant glow...

The Life in the city, my sweet little home.
Looked so out of place, in this green dome.
All my memories, and thoughts so dear.
Now got blended, to a sweet elixir...

It was so calm, nothing seemed to move.
It was not easy, to fit into the groove.
The rustling of leaves, was all I could hear,
the sound of silence, was too loud to bear...

I looked around, hoping to see someone I know.
But all that I could find, was my own shadow.
I was lost, but it was too late.
I had been crushed, under the gruesome hands of fate...

Wrath Of Gods...

An awful roar, then a fearful shake,
the sleepy little town, got a startled wake.
The sun was still down, it was before dawn.
Thousands were hurt, they started to moan...

There were cries, there were tears,
A complete mayhem, as if the doomsday nears.
The solitude of Nature, was suddenly cut short,
Who is your friend? There was no time to sort...

"What's come onto us?", someone screamed.
It made no difference, the aftershocks streamed.
The landscape changed, the buildings were shattered.
The once peaceful town, now stood battered...

The darkness faded, with the sun's warm stare.
People had to be saved, there was no time to spare.
Mother Nature proved, once more in her ways,
We are just puppets, when the Almighty plays...

তিস্তা নদীর কাছে (Tista Nadir kaachhe)

"ওঠরে সকাল হয়ে গেছে।"

দুর বহুদুর থেকে  শুনতে  পেলাম আমি  ।
"আজকে  তোকে   যেতে  হবে  তিস্তা নদীর কাছে।"
কে যেন আমায় জানিয়ে দিল, ঠিক বুঝলাম না আমি।


ঘুরতে ঘুরতে  কখন আমি  হারিয়ে গেলাম বনে।
ফেরার পথটা কোথায় যেন? পড়ল না আর মনে।
যেদিকেই  যাই শুধুই সবুজ, শুধুই গাছের সারি।
কি  আর করি  এগিয়ে  গেলাম, যেতেই  হবে  বাড়ি।


এমনি করেই দুপুর গেল, বিকেল এল চলে।
সূর্য গেল অস্তাচলে, কালো  রঙ ঢেলে জঙ্গলে ।
চারদিকেতে শুধুই আঁধার, জঙ্গলেতে রাতের বাহার।
ঠিক যেন এক নিশীথ পুরী, হল জগত আমার।


জোনাক জ্বলে ঝোপের মাঝে, ঝিঝির ডাকে দু কান বাজে।
দক্ষিণ হাওয়ার দোলায় যেন, সব সাজল নতুন সাজে।
মন মাতানো পরিবেশে , যেন কিসের গন্ধ আসে?
হঠাত্ মনে চিন্তা এল, বাঘ নেইত আশেপাশে?


যেই না মনে চিন্তা এল, হাত পা কেমন ঠান্ডা হল।
কোথাও আমায় যেতেই হবে, বাঘের থেকে দুরে।
থাকুক পড়ে বনের বাহার, চাইনা হতে বাঘের খাবার,
হঠাত্ বনের শান্তি চিরে - একটা, পেচা গেল উড়ে।


পা বাড়িয়ে নড়ার আগেই, থমকে গেলাম আমি।
সামনে দেখি আগুন চোখের, হারহিম করা দ্বপ্ দ্বপানি।
পথ আটকে বাঘ মামা, মুখতো নয়  যেন ধামা,
সাক্ষাত্ যম দাড়িয়ে যেন, কি করব এখন আমি?


শুনেছিলাম মৃত্যুকালে, সারা জীবন চোখে ভাসে,
কথাটা যে হায় নয়কো মেকি, প্রমাণ পেলাম হাতেনাতে ।
বাচার তাগিদ বড় তাগিদ, তাই ঘুরে দৌড় দিলাম।
কিন্তু কিসে হোচট খেয়ে, আছড়ে পড়ে জ্ঞান হারালাম।


কিসের  যেন শব্দ শুনে, চোখ খুললাম আমি।
দেখি মাথার ভেতর কেমন, অদ্ভুত ঝিমঝিমানি।
সব ই যেন ঢাকা ধোয়ায়, বাঘ কি শেষে খেল আমায়?  
কিসের যেন লাগলো ছোয়া, হঠাত্ আমার মাথায়।


তাকিয়ে দেখি মাথার কাছে, মা দাড়িয়ে আমার।
ভাবছি তখন কোথায় আমি? কই সে বনের বাহার?
হারালাম কি স্বর্গেলাকে? নাকি আমি নরক কূপে?
আকাশ পাতাল ভাবছি যখন, পড়ল বাড়ি মাথায়।


এমন সময় মা বলল, "ওঠ হতচ্ছাড়া।"
"ডেকে ডেকে সকাল বয়ে দুপুর হল সারা,"
"কিন্তু হায় ছেলের দেখি, নেইকো ওঠার তাড়া?"
"তোকে না আজ যেতে হবে তিস্তা নদীর পাশে।"
ঘুমের ঘোর কাটিয়ে আমি, উঠলাম অবশেষে। 

Mystic Time...

When things go wrong, and nothing seems right,
Your hopes disappear, the dark TIMES give you the fright.
Just hold on my friend, hold on to your DREAM,
You will get through, how hard it may seem...

Troubled TIMES, may put you against the TIDE.
Darkness may loom, many TRUTHS it may hide.
But Don't loose HOPE, or your will to fight,
Because GOD sends an ANGEL, who'll show you the light...

You may feel low, you may even cry,
but never let, your feelings go dry.
Just keep your cool, feel what you hear,
I am sure your goal, is somewhere near...

This is the truth, the truth about life.
Its all about Glory, Wait and Strife.
The wounds that you get, with TIME will heal,
Only if you have - the HEART and the WILL.....
