Poem : I Love Shillong

Image
I love Shillong, I love Shillong, And yes, I love Shillong. Even today I see your image In the canvas of my mind. I love you, Shillong I truly love you. I often think Did God Himself Paint your beauty On the hills ? Shillong, you look beautiful, You really look beautiful. Trees and greenery wrapped Around soothing hills ----- Like a land  from fairly tales. You look wonderful, Shillong,you look wonderful. The sun and clouds Play together all day long. Watching it all, My heart overflows With waves of joy. " Shillong,I love you" My heart whispers aloud. When Waterfalls, Come dancing down the mountains, Every joy within me Starts dancing like waves. Shillong, I love you. You are the jewel In the eyes of thousands of travelers. Even from afar, I still hear your call. And silently I say ----- I will come again, Shillong, I will come to you. Shillong ,I love you, You fill my heart with delight. ----------------------- Poet : Dr. Goutam Kumar Mallick

Poem : The Level Crossing Ahead




Ahead of you lies a level crossing,
A train may come your way,
Why stay blind though eyes are open --
Use you brain today.

At home a little child awaits,
Who will care if you are gone ?
Your house of joy,your home of peace
Will drown if you're withdrawn.

Your sky of dreams is filled with hope,
Your child will grow one day -----
Would you depart in middle now
And leave him cast away ?

The road too has its rules of walk,
Learn them ,hold them near,
If you wish to avoid mishaps,
Follow  them with care.
