Suhina Biswasmajumdar

Contemporary World Literature -Suhina Biswasmajumdar- Sindh CourierA writer from Kolkata, Bengal and a life-long devotee of Swami Vivekananda, Suhina is against any discrimination.

Even Then

Gradually just like onion I unfold my layers

Searching from the far north who comes

The domain of the moon and magic may offer him….

Does he react… does he receive…

Does he reveal and revolt?

 

I know, you pause here and smile

Like me, you know, the story of the onion

You know the mystery of their wrappers

Anatomy of musk deer

And those waves of time and dunes

 

Rebellious rhythm rhymes with your heart beat

Hides like my tears and helpless smile

But you know, as I too, we never snatch the sun to hatch the gloomy sunflowers

The poor poet always dreams of a better world

For the gen next

 

Only the unfolding stories today remain unchanged

Unrevealed truth of trust and past takes here pause and smile

Again the director is awarded for his unreleased unparalleled movie, once more.
