Poem : Umiam

Image
(A poem on Umiam Lake of Meghalaya ,India) Though today the sky is cloudy, Light and shadow softly play. Umiam ---- around you gathers A fair of trees in green array. A gentle breeze flows calm and sweet, Waves rise with a murmuring sound. My soul finds peace beholding you ---- As though someone lit joy all around. At the call of birds, My heart longs to drift away. My eyes are filled with your beauty --- I wish to return someday. O Umiam , O Umiam I wish to come again someday. -------------- Poet : Dr. Goutam Kumar Mallick

Poem : A Moment with Conscience






One day I suddenly met my conscience.
I said " What's the matter ?
These days I hardly ever see you ! "
Hearing me, my conscience brust into 
laughter.
It said, " Earlier you used to keep me in the mirror,
And I too would find the chance
To sting you from time to time.
But now -------
I'm locked away in the deep freez,
solid  ice ."
