Journey by Train

Dr. R. Ananta Padmanabha Rao

R. A. Padmanabha Rao

Drops of rainy water shining on the Window glass
broken pearls from the anklets of the beautiful sky.

The shining at the horizon
on a cloudy sky,
Move with the moods of the travellers
on a journey by Train.

Unemployed youth travelling for interview
with hopes of an early employment,
Desparate father of a bride,
In search of a suitable groom,
Trees standing still on either side
Like the middle class employee,
Never achieving anything in life,
Inspite of running around in strife.

The lover standing on the platform
Welcomes his beloved after a long wait
Enduring the moments of waiting
In a few minutes to fulfill her joy.
