Odia poetry by Madhab chandra Jena from Jajpur,Odisha,India

କବି

ନିଜ ହାତରେ ନିଜକୁ
ଟୁକୁଡ଼ା ଟୁକୁଡ଼ା କରି
ବାଣ୍ଟି ନଥିଲେ ସତ ସତିକା
ତୁମକୁ, ତାକୁ ଓ ଅନ୍ୟ ମାନଙ୍କୁ
ମୁଁ କବି ଟିଏ ହେଇ ନଥାନ୍ତି,
ହେଇଥିଲେ ହେଇଥାନ୍ତି ପ୍ରେମିକଟିଏ
କିମ୍ବା ଅତି ବେଶୀରେ ଜୋକର ଟିଏ ।


English poetry by Sushil kumar from Koraput,Odisha

 Innings

When the rain 

pitter-patters 

on my window, 

ruffling my hair, 

you make me 

muse on

your gorgeous eyes. 


Purloining 

the redness 

of your lips, 

I dive 

And 

I dive into 

the city of bliss. 


Schmoozing 

with you there, 

I return 

And 

the rain subsides 

to declare 

the end of innings.

English poetry by Josephine Grace S. Baliling Kampong Cham, Cambodia

 

Tulips

The bud was plucked before the flower bloomed

Life is a pattern that was taken from the loom

The more that flame is covered up, the hotter it burns

For I is on fire

Yet I have found nowhere to leave my misery

I am a lady who speaks to you, but horns are on my head

Look for no ending to this agony

                                       For you have tasted my body

Thunder with breath of flame

Thy will fall from shame

English poetry by Josephine Grace S. Baliling Kampong Cham, Cambodia

 

Tombstone

A dew of death, sweet to me as heaven’s raindrops

As the wave of the ocean claps

Floating away from the rocky hill

Reaching out for wounds to heal

Down until I lay upon a grassy meadow

Where I can see your shadow

We waded through the shallow

Path we take is so narrow
