  Lizard  (E)
The poem is about a lizard which I see every day.
#2181846 by Raghav R


I have added a poem titled

“The Lizard”.

I watch him every day, sitting on my chair, in the balcony where I spend most of my time reading and writing. He is a regular visitor and I am always fascinated by his activities. His antics provide me a diversion from the seriousness of the daily activities.

I have added a poem titled “Cassandra’s Prophecy”.

The poem is a result of my imagination of what, according to me, Cassandra would have told her father when she felt about the imminent fall of Troy.

 Avian Predictions  (E)
This essay talks about an activity of men who use parrots for fortune telling.
#2180069 by Raghav R


I have added an Essay titled

"Avian Predictions"

I have added an essay on the topic “Avian Predictions”. The scenes depicted in the essay are those witnessed by me in my childhood. I have been witness to such activities on numerous occasions during my walk to school. People using parrots, sparrows and sometimes mynahs to predict the future of gullible persons were all too common those days. Most often, rural people flocked to such men to have their future read by these birds. It still exists in rural hamlets and patronized by illiterate village folk.
  My Memories of Rickshaw Pullers  (E)
A poem on the life of Rickshaw Pullers
#2179904 by Raghav R


I have added a poem titled
"My Memories of Rickshaw Pullers"

The poem is a recollection of what I had seen of the life of rickshaw pullers during my stay in Kolkata and Lucknow spanning a period of more than 25 years.

I often think of them even after 24 years of leaving Kolkata and Lucknow.

#2179296 by Raghav R


I have added a poem titled

“A City under Curfew”.

I have attempted to write this poem, unlike my earlier poems, with internal rhyming. This is my full-fledged attempt and I hope it is received well by the readers of WDC.

I have just added a poem titled “Infant Son Versus Adult Son”.

This poem talks about a mother harassed and tormented by her adult son. She recounts and laments how her son whom she brought up with loving care ill-treats her at her advanced age, incarcerating her and denying her the basic needs. She compares her son in his childhood and the adult now he is, and laments at the change the passage of time has made to her life.
