Sankar Sarkar Poems

Can anyone give me
a handful of dust of the soil?
To feel the cadence of the universe
To feel the existence of life
...

On the seed-bed of time
We are sowing the seeds of love
Sprouting and sprawling its essence
Over the time forever;
...

Listen to the cry of dust
Every speck of dust
Like human heart lying
Crowded along the white road
...

Don’t die
Rather live long
For a bit of love
Under this nice sky!
...

I am the spark of fire
Come of the heaps of ashes
Of the deceased,
I am not afraid of death
...

Breaking! Breaking! Breaking!
Day and night we are breaking,
We are breaking like ice, like soil
Like sand and like tears!
...

We are in touch

We are in touch
And keep touching
...

All Indians are
Beyond all bookish and childish prank,
All are versification
Of essence of Veda and Upanishada,
...

We born in love
We grown in love
We lived in love
We died in love
...

Stand a while
Smile a bit,
And awaken self
To be here fit,
...

Neverpromise
You will come again like spring
Never make me hopeful
You will never leave me!
...

12.

Dreamless life is like bubbles
Of swamp, and sigh of tears in dark
Let life dream of ecstasy
To beat the goal!
...

We dream in sleep
We walk in belief
We talk in inspiration
We pant in passion
...

Let my face get reflected on the mirror of dust
Before effacing all gall from this world,
Let my existence come out of my self
And stand to visualize who I am!
...

I want to write a poem
On the wing of the sun
Or on the embodied soul of
A drop of crazy dew
...

When hopes want to soar up
Like golden wings of sky
The world stares at them
With unending possibilities' tie
...

Let me live
I want to live
A tiny sapling told
Crying lifting head
...

I can hold a light-year
In a wink of eyes,
I can make you feel
The touch of countless tears
...

Throwing your hands into the sky
If you call she will not listen to you,
If you ask a patch of cloud to wait a while
She will not wait also and listen to you
...

Pair of hopeless hands
Getting optimistic every moment
Beyond realistic taste;
New born being
...

The Best Poem Of Sankar Sarkar

Handful Of Dust

Can anyone give me
a handful of dust of the soil?
To feel the cadence of the universe
To feel the existence of life
To feel ever inspiration
To go ahead of facing
the sophistication
From anywhere
From any place
From birth to grave
And from reality to eternity
I want only a handful of dust
of the soil!
To understand the democratic sensation
Ever flowing in my veins
In my thoughts
In my realization
Even in the blood,
irrespective of child, young
and the old
Have you felt your essence
In the speck of dust of this soil?
Have you ever seen your face
through the mirror of this soil?
How has it reflected your image
on the vastness of eternity?
How are you looking?
Beautiful nor ugly?
Introvert nor extrovert?
Democratic nor autocratic?
Friendly nor foe?
Don’t cast down your face
with shame!
Raise your head!
And open your eyes!
Greet the child
of your heart of the hearts!
Here is still time
Here is blue sky yet
Nature looks loving
Ocean looks wavy
Hills look optimistic
Come my brave hearts!
Brave lovers!
Brave comrades of inspiration

To catch hold of the sky
to scatter on the pale,
To sprout all unborn possibilities
To awaken drowsy feelings from trance
Only I want a handful of dust of this soil
To feel, to realize, to visualize the relation
Among the past, the present and the future
To paint the sketch the uncertainty
On the canvas of certainty of my heart
With varied and assorted colors of the dust
Of my soil, and the soil of universe
To feel ever joy with my leaden eyes in mortal
Rhythm of feeling of my soiled body
Reduced to dust!
Can anyone give me
a handful of this soil?

Great poetry from an accomplished poem. I wonder how I missed him all these years notwithstanding his absence on PH from 2017 to 2019. I wish him all the best.
