Poetry: The Rainbows Last Evening

May 29, 2010
Amitabh Mitra

two rainbows woke up last evening at east london eyes still heavy in slumber in rebellion in unequivocal shadows clouds gaggled away in a rush of quarrelsome gulls about who is who more beautiful today i remembered you at hauz khas behind the ruins when you had touched me with your smile on such an unlikely day.

Poem and Photograph by Amitabh Mitra

An orthopaedic surgeon in a busy hospital in East London, South Africa, I actually belong to Gwalior, Madhya Pradesh, its long summers and hectic politics. I edit a print poetry journal called 'A Hudson View', a journal on African arts called 'Inyathi' and dream of going back to Gwalior. My blog on South African Arts is http://www.amitabhmitra.blogspot.com/
