Poetry – Orbindu Ganga

The landfall

She was hovering along
The sea, to have contrived,
Nature’s vibe was unnerved
By the form, trying to be absolute,
With many shades of grey elements
Vacuolated within, he purloined,
Lessons were worded without a word
To delve within, inundated with remorse,
Creation was never his forte
To shine, slowly injected his malice,
The deep cores were unable
To hold, uprooting the shaft,
Seeing the pain felt by shrub
Being in tears, she wailed within,
Decreed the firmament to change
The direction, zephyr turned vicious,
The bay of Bengal snuffled
Carrying her, the pacific was pacified,
Blighted with no eyes to spare
She whistled, curling the clouds along,
Tides winded the waves marooned
Near the shore, to fall aghast,
Striking the chords into the layers
Of dark sheath, cumulus snivelled,
Landed on the curve to leave
The traces, the signs of our sighs…
