Jagta Nand Sahay Poem
His legs tremble,
Standing: over the-mound of dust,
He does not see the past left behind
And strives to extinguish the brightly burning star Forgetting,
that nearby A blue island floats in tears.
And a lingering restlessness sweeps past him.
He parries the questions of the present Pricking him intermittently
Not seeing with the eyes
The glowing cinder under ashes
The tide is cheated by the foaming sea Which drowns it
And wandering in the forlorn cremation ground He is haunted by the shrieks Of his bedeviled soul
A formless shadow knocks at his dormant mind.
Nothing awakes but anguish Crushing the weary breath, He gasps and fumbles
With the rising crescendo of
the inner agony, Which pricks him
And is irredeemably absorbed in the body,
The wound remains green And on the lighted pyre not the body,
The bruised conscience burns.

Jagta Nand Sahay Poem
Infinite space and finite planets
Born before yesterday
And going beyond tomorrow
In the eternity of time,
Interlinked with the chemistry of
‘Creation and Destruction;
’Life and Death,
The elusive phenomena
Beyond palpable comprehension.
The limitlessness of time
And measure lessness of space
In between the genie and the factor ‘G’
Is a lingering concept
Contriving to wreck all notions
That exists in this universe
Born spontaneously as interactions of elements of the COSMOS
The products as CHAOS, inhabit the ever rotating planets
Like a dream, bad enough, seeking its portent that baffles the intellect
Forget you Man, the intangible concept,
The existence that plagues your mind;
You are supreme, all concept come from you.
You create your destiny.
There is nothing more than life and death
That are for you to enjoy.

Jagta Nand Sahay Poem
You have gained that stature of man
Holding the sky on your palms.
Twist the world around your fingers
And diffuse the arrogant fury of the nature.
Your knowledge and intelligent probes
Shall restrain the devastation wreaked
On the helpless souls of the earth,
You like a Phoenix rise from the debris of the ‘Dissolution’.
The Nature may please to thrust at you,
Out of its ghastliness, unleashing the devils
Like Tsunami, Tornados, Earthquakes, Volcano blasts et all
A dastardly act, annihilating the lives created by itself
In a eons of time so painfully creating that it will destroy.
But you have the will to survive the deadly onslaughts
Bearing with the maladies determined not to surrender to the Devil,
Its devilry can never decimate you or wipe you out of existence
Though since a eons it is indulging in such nefarious acts
Conforming to the theory of Malthus, namely ‘Malthus Balancing Act
And you shall live for a eons more
In spite of all the natural calamities preying on you.

Jagta Nand Sahay Poem
I see you dazzling on the horizon
Like a flamingo – flame
And nothing seems to change o, dear!
Not even the layer of ozone.
The cosmos echoes your loud glamour,
The darkness driven by your heaving bosom
Your eyes have pierced radio elements
Your breath gave power to nuclear fission.
You have lighted the spirit of the universe
And the path of the wandering galaxies,
We embarked on the quest of the universe
In the trail of our fantasies
Having merged the terrestrial turmoil
Into your amorous tremble
The earth bemoans its treasure lost
The earth finds itself in shamble.
O, dear, when I rise to you
And lock in a firm embrace,
I find, I can open my third eye
And scan the whole of space.

Jagta Nand Sahay Poem
I do not like my face any more
When I happen to look in the mirror in morning
To groom myself to toil for living,
I find now a Debilitated, repelling face
Haggard , wrinkled, shorn of its earlier gleam.
I wonder, what happened to it in such a short time
The two bright eyes now sunken deep in their blackened sockets
And criss cross lines stamped on the widening forehead.
A sinister shadow looking back at me from the depth of the mirror
To my horror and regret, how Time wrecks the beautiful things
Adorning the spirit of the universe!
Some time ago, how right and nice was every thing,
Looking so bright and gay.
A smart, attractive and inviting feature
Before the metamorphosis happened
And thus brought about the doom of things,
Now I am leading a vegetating life
Awaiting the end of my self as is the custom of the world!

Jagta Nand Sahay Poem
The towering tide in the sea
should not awe you by its height
This is mere effervescence
Rising and falling wearily
On the bosom of the foaming Sea.
The momentary peak of strength that it attains
By jumping out of its mass to reach the sky
Is as vainglorious and transitory As the Ego of his ‘I’.

Jagta Nand Sahay Poem
In search of an opportunity
For a breakthrough in life,
I roamed about,
Knocking every door
But no one opened.
Day and night I gazed at stars
And looked around with hope.
I toiled & toiled, nothing came out
And patience waited
Till it also became impatient.
Nothing more could I do,
Nothing could I grasp
A shiver passes through my body.
In the hide and seek of life
There is a race to reach the top.
But chances never came to help
Though it looms everywhere,
Testing the character of man
Who could hold his self, neat and fair.
Waiting for things to happen
Is a wishful thought no doubt
But when you set to do it
The chance is all about.
And if by chance you falter
It holds you and you sight the top of the race
You win and win you all the fight.
Chance is a helper always
If you start a right.

Jagta Nand Sahay Poem
That which passes away
Leaves in its trail
The shape of things to come to take its place.
0, Past, you have now passed But when the Time stops you come again And repeat yourself.
I lived in you in back of time
And suffered pangs of life forlorn I looked at Future on the horizon To give me a life which I adorn A wishful thought I learnt in time It never begins nor ends anywhere .We are all children of a fate - That Time usurps and forbear
It moves in circle flitting away To us it passes as the past It comes to us as future then By turning circle full & fast
We forget miseries, suffering all The past that caused us so much fear In life and death, we can't forget Though wait for you appear.
I greet you not as a welcome guest
Coming from the womb of past, to my despair, I can not laugh, nor can I weep,
I want to strike a deal with you very fair
You turn the clock back again to whom I laughed And loved the life without any care.

Jagta Nand Sahay Poem
You are a MAN , do not despair,
Higher and higher to rise, aspire.
Help the needy, there is name
Be kind to others, there is fame.
Bring comfort to a shattered heart.
Some peace of mind and some joy.
Teach them how to gain their worth
And find happiness in life to enjoy!

Jagta Nand Sahay Poem
The year has passed. away
And the Sun, marking the Time
Crept down a step further,
Throwing the anguish of the past
On the New comer.
But a bafflement subdues
The buoyancy of his mind
As he returns to the mooring Where the new ends,
Aid Boredom (dispersal In the desolate street)
The Time has kept it tied
And though his legs are trembling
He lingers and then throws himself
On the wreckage of Tomorrow.
