Milan Raj Kumar: Text
mountain stream
along with the clear water
the moon flows . . .
this endless journey
with a poem bag and guilts
gulmohar saplings
I plant them one by one
around the farmhouse . . .
she might come someday
seeking a cool place to rest
spring evening
the hut glows all night
in liquid silver . . .
fetching the moon from the well
she sings of youthful days
silently folding
a white origami crane
this late noon . . .
myopic eyes search
Hiroshima on the map
a dewdrop
the divine proportion
on the tip of a fern . . .
in her classical dance
pose of a blooming lotus
