প্রশ্ন-চিহ্ন

আমার ছোট্টো সাজানো বাগানে
যখন ফুটতো নানা রঙের ফুল
তখন সেই রঙীন ফুল দেখে
আমার খুশীর থাকে না কোনো সীমা।
বাড়ীর সকল প্রিয়জনদের
ডেকে দেখাতাম সেই রঙীন ফুলের সমাহার
বেল ফুলের সুবাসে তখন সুবাসিত চারিদিক
দুই নয়ন মেলে দেখতাম আমি
 নয়নতারার অপূর্ব রূপ।।
হলুদ গোলাপের ছবি তুলে
সকলকে দূরভাষে পাঠাতাম সুপ্রভাত বার্তা,
কিন্তু আজ সেই অনুভূতিগুলো
হঠাৎ কমে আসছে কেন?
কাকে দায়ী করবো এর জন্য আমি?
কিছু যেন বুঝে উঠতে পারছিনা!!
সময়ের পাখি যেন আমার হাত থেকে
উড়ে যাচ্ছে ক্রমশ।
আমি ধরতে পারছিনা
সংগে এই সুন্দর অনুভূতিগুলো যেন
মিলিয়ে যাচ্ছে কোথাও
আমি আমার সম্মুখে যেন
এক বিশাল প্রশ্ন-চিহ্ন হয়ে দাঁড়িয়ে আছি?

I was wearing my mother's slippers..............by TORA ADHIKARI

              I could sense that I was transferred from operation theatre and I was taken to the cabin. I was going through unbearable pain.....the pain which a mother has to endure to give birth to her child.

              In the way towards the room I understood that I had given birth to a princess. Tears rolled down my cheeks.

             When I entered the room, I saw my love lying in a small cot.....the meaning of my life changed.......she made me a mother, the greatest gift of  God. I saw her small sweet face, blinking eyes,beautiful eye browse, eye lashes..... what a  beauty!
              I looked at her the whole afternoon, I don't know when I fell asleep.
             I remember my sister shaking me up and giving me the mobile phone,"Your mother in-law wants to talk to you "
            Somehow I managed to hold the mobile  phone when I heard my mother in-law's voice, "Why did the tears come out of your eyes when you heard that you have given birth to a female child ? "
            I answered her very politely, "Only thought which came to my mind during that time was that, my child has to go through the same terrible pain one day when she will become a mother . No other feeling prevailed over me ."
           "I  misunderstood you. Take care  my child", my mother-in-law replied.
            That day I understood my mother's feelings very well and realised that I was wearing her slippers.

                  🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏

VALENTINE'S DAY ........by Tora Adhikari

I have no experience of getting Valentine's gift

Even no experience of giving Valentine's gift 

I really wonder--what is Valentine's day?

I look around and see the waves of Valentine's day

I don't really understand 

The essence of the day which makes the young blood rush to the cheeks 

But when I sleep out of exhaustion at night

Few days I have terrible cramps on my feet,

Someone comes quickly to rescue me in my terrible pain,

Somebody cares me even when I sleep,

I feel at the top of the world,

I pray to God to bless him always.

And wonder what does Valentine's really mean?
