Chittaranjan Dash, Delhi, 30 March 2025
In the shadows of my memory
I dig deeper for finding your roots.
———–
Like a farmer fighting for survival
A gravedigger lashes at the earth.
————
New and old potatoes wrestle
in the attic, sings a generation gap.
————–
In the evening light of autumn
Sprinkle of despair inked in beauty.
—————
From soft spots of terracotta
Oozes fiery scent of childhood.
