Bakul Banerjee’s poems on Index of ISPS Member Poems by Author (illinoispoets.org)
The Sandstorm
The color of the sky was turning acid green.
“Close the windows.” Mother was screaming.
I was
peeking at love letters in the cookie tin,
that my
father wrote to his new bride. I gave in.
Closing
windows against the wind was daunting.
Despite
efforts, the fierce sandstorm blew in.
In the
summer afternoon, the house went dark.
I could
not remember where I left the old tin.
The power was out. In the darkness, I tasted grit.
Ganga,
that’s what my father called her. I kept
thinking.
Was she like the mighty river swollen
by the
monsoon, shimmering under the moonlight?
