Sitting by the Indian Ganges Side

By Moinak Dutta

sitting by the Indian Ganges side

Sitting by the Indian Ganges side

You and I, will read a poem

You might think of Andrew Marvell

And I perhaps too, think Carpe diem,

(Seeing the River thus

Flowing for ages

Just like our lives and us,)

So enchanted by the day's mirth

Perhaps will I weave a song too,

Just by your side

Spending the day long overdue.
