Poems by Delwar Hossain
DROPPED LEAVES
River pays no heed
To the song of dropped leaves,
Rather, it runs at its own speed.
If obstructed in every turning
River takes to alternative means.
Streams of dreams
Having got entangled in the streams of dreams,
I cherish new dreams as days go.
Dream makes me think as to life of reality.
Reality revolves within the domain of want and having.
Within the touch of humanity None sleeps, none dreams.
Hankering after riches and power
Continues polluting ours mentalities and senses,
we are yet to overcome.
