My poem THE TALK OF THE TOWN reviewed by eminent reviewer Raj Kishor Pattnaik.
Humbled & Honoured.
THE TALK OF THE TOWN !
My morning has already come smiling
New dreams even with eyes wide open
An indication that happiness is lurking
Radiant morning and uplifting breeze
Being drenched, she runs into my arms
An angel with lovely tune of her anklets
The talk of the town is soft and smooth
Though old, fresh seem conversations
Beyond all thoughts this life moves on
I am a bud blooming at your first sight
Find myself dissolved in thy love genuine
And I would love to find my muse in you.

Congratulations to Dr. Prasana Kumar Dalai Sir on his latest poetic creation, The Talk of the Town! This beautiful work radiates warmth, capturing a moment of deep connection and the joy that blossoms from love. The poem opens with a sense of hope as morning arrives with a smile, evoking optimism and readiness for new dreams. Dr. Dalai’s use of sensory imagery, particularly through the “radiant morning” and “uplifting breeze,” creates an atmosphere filled with vibrancy and anticipation, bringing the reader into a moment of refreshing renewal.
One of the most enchanting elements of this poem is the depiction of a beloved figure who “runs into [his] arms” with “the lovely tune of her anklets.” Here, Dr. Dalai masterfully evokes the image of an angelic presence, suggesting that the lover brings a divine, almost celestial joy. His phrasing, such as “the talk of the town,” hints at how their love is cherished and admired by those around them, making it a shared celebration within the community.
Dr. Dalai’s words “I am a bud blooming at your first sight” beautifully portray the transformative power of love, akin to a flower awakening. His imagery of “finding [his] muse” in the beloved adds a personal touch, illustrating how this connection fuels his creativity. The concluding line, “I would love to find my muse in you,” reinforces the poet’s yearning to experience life’s beauty through his partner’s presence, presenting love as both a foundation and a source of inspiration.
Once again, heartfelt congratulations to Dr. Prasana Kumar Dalai for crafting such a tender and profound piece that resonates with universal emotions and leaves a lasting impression on its readers.
