Women Wordsmiths And Christmas By Amita Roy

Resurgence

Moments evanescent in sighs Encodes looming messeges A micro menace mutates The eyepiece lens Confounds intense gaze Pregnant grief outlines a river The killer on rampage lashes a world It's roller coaster spree Peels off skin of self complacence In shooting counts of death. 2020, a cursed year of disasters plenty Wakes up to cheer Santa's coming The healing touch of outstretched palms- Through multiple cracks of stratified agony Wasted life breathes an ecstatic prayer Between ambivalent hems of hope and despair 'Ring out the murkiness of sullied year A nightmare of recluse and fear Let peals of happiness loudly chime A pageantry of light, love and resurgent life.'
