Prayag Saikia Poems

Like a sprout
new time appears
from the cocoon of a hibernating past.
...

(for scientist Abdul Kalam)
Immersed in the sky-ward dreams
A visionary of incantation
...

Implanted, the human trees in the woods
Turned mute in the clamorous tempest
None heard the deathsclose beside
The budding roots in earthen schools
...

Raising shrines of courage
I was moving on and on
Then you came
I turned fragile
...

Every man has in himself a continent of undiscovered characters; happy is who acts as the Columbus to his own soul-J.Stephen

I'm the groom
Of both worldly love and derision
...

The wind blows
Rains fall in drops
The thirst for clouds wakes up in the mind
...

Wars are fought even with silence
It's a different affliction to be a warrior in this war
Warriors here appear to be
Black holes in space about to disappear unnoticed
...

All sorts of incidents are on
At a regular spree
The day-to-day occurrences have stopped for none
...

Once god was here in our land Garbed as fish
God grew as a sprouting seedling
From a little fish
To mammoth whale
...

Have you at home
The bells of fortune
Ringing pendulously in the air
...
