Crisis

CRISIS


                                    BY    DR RANJIT DUTTA

A blanket of darkness everywhere!

Civilization, society, love ,

Faith and religion

All are on the threshold of crisis.

My heart revolts 

And says something different

The mysterious journey of time spreads

An enigmatic essence of evolution.

The lizard on the wall,

Hoots of the owl on the banana tree,

The colourful giant sky

Aren’t they the witness of eternal time?

The soul, incarnation and re-birth

All are in crisis of thought.

Weeping civilization asks again and again  

But never an answer anywhere

All are spellbound,

Tough responsibility on the 

Shoulder innocent generation

Unknown countless time,

A new social panorama

Reddish songs of life,

Joyous poetical notes,

A colourful dreams of love.

With Indomitable spirit of revolution

It’s indeed a journey!

A mysterious journey of eternal time.
