Sankhajit Bhattacharjee Poem 14

Scientific Research Fellow in University of Wisconsin, Milwaukee

RED AND WHITE

The first phase

was written in history, full of violence, the phase of bravery and turmoil,

led to destruction.

The second phase

was written in human heart, the phase of glory and tranquility, creative,

enlightened love and peace.

I adore the second one

as the very essence of serenity overrode

my body, senses, mind and heart.

Emperor Asoka and Rishi Aravindo

take the bouquet of fresh flowers:

made up of the scent of my conscience,

the color of my intellect, the life of my feelings,

the blood of my appearance and the material of my existence.
