CHOUDHURI SUKUMAR - Lonesome Poem

I become solitary, a tranquil loner
They only come to me
Who are entranced,
Possessed,
Unfailingly afflicted, or
Unyieldingly attached
Since ever.

Bit by bit I cut off the crowd
Even by mistake I don't call them
Whom I have missed so long.

Is calling necessary?
I ponder at times..


I roam around so many horizons,
A solitary simoleton,
On the hills, in the light,
Though I never received a
Musked greeting.

So I live in entrancement,
In engrossment,
In my comfortable existance.

And for all,
Sifting and kneading my
Solitude
I create my good wishes,
I compose my poems........
