Special Edition: Amita Ray

Amita Ray
Ring in the New

The last rays of sun
passes through turnstile 
of impermanence
yesterdays todays tomorrows
make faint imprints
to an end that knows no End
dwindling lustre of a winter eve
plunges in cavernous time
to renew an array of tomorrows

Each year bids adieu
seamless down time’s flow
yawning and waking garbed anew
in hope riding the moments
of yet another, a palimpsest
slipping perennially through
hourglass of eternity.

Warmth of Touch

The final parting
with a loved one 
was sedated in comfort-
my hands exuding 
love and life snugged the
 pallid but still warm touch,
emotions rhymed in
medley of mild heart throbs.
 A lifetime story I wove anew
 keeping me immersed in
 the benign eyes, then
lost in desert of disorientation
the thread of narrative I sought
 blissfully ended
 in peaceful last breath.
