It's Spring today Whether Flowers Bloom Or Not - Poem by Subhash Mukhopadhyay Whether flowers bloom or not it's spring today On the paved footpath with feet dipped in stone a rather wooden tree laughs out loud chest bursting with fresh green leaves Whether flowers bloom or not it's spring today. The days of masking the sun and then unmasking it of laying people down in the lap of death of picking them up again those days that have passed this way let them not return That lad of many voices who for a coin or two would chirp like a koel down the street in the ceremonial yellow of twilight? those days have taken him away With the sky like a red and yellow wedding invitation on her head clasping the railing to her breast a dark and ugly unwed girl down this alley played with such idle thoughts Right then there fluttered in, shamelessly, right onto her body, oh damnation! A stupid, awful, foolish butterfly! Then the sound of a door slamming shut. Hiding his face in the dark that sinewy tree was still laughing. [Translated by Antara Dev Sen] |

Today's sunshine gives us a flirtatious reminder that spring is coming..... but not before more wintry weather. Be a prism, spreading God's light and love, not a mirror reflecting the world's hatred.
