by Moinak Dutta
Sitting by the Indian Ganges side
You and I, will read a poem
You might think of Andrew Marvell
And I perhaps too, think Carpe diem
(Seeing the River thus
Flowing for ages
Just like our lives and us)
So enchanted by the day’s mirth
Perhaps will I weave a song too,
Just by your side
Spending the day long overdue.
