Poetry:
Suresh Hachekali
All Round Victory of Life
The bamboo baskets
brimful of compost fertilizers
carrying on their back
women are getting down to besin
Music-tinged they remain
while climbing down the hills
while climbing up the hills
Continuum of love for life looks marvelous.
Citron-flower-like delicate rustic children
wearing the spectacles of yellow creepers
act the role of medical doctors
Oh my goodness
what a pleasant cadence of life!
Virgin mountainous wind
having been emanated from heap of snow
loiters around in rhododendron groves
and sings victory melody of life.
Infant sun jovially moving around
on balcony of horizon
Evening getting down to the earth
wearing the crescent moon on the brow
Clouds' white flocks running breathlessly
towards northern pastureland of firmament
Omnipresent are these octaves of life.
Stretching creeper
Sprouting tree
A splotchy uncastrated charging bull
Moths flying in the mustard field
And the running marathoner river
Brilliant forms of life all these are.
A damsel fragrance
evaporated out of orchid polen
Green moss on the boulder
that is lying on Dudhkoshi River
Birds' enthralling chirrup
on sweet lime's grove
All are lively intuitions of life.
Though thousands of hooves
of white-haired stallion
trod on the soil of playground
insurmountable sprouting of ethana grass
and fertile fragrance were intact
All round victory of life I could see.
