Today's Poem: Opulent Tapestry of Bengal by Surmi Pathak

OPULENT TAPESTRY OF BENGAL

 Surmi Pathak 

Amidst the verdant embrace of East,

A collage of art and culture unfolds with grace. 

Gentle flow of the Ganges, a timeless feast, 

Nourishing the soul with its serene pace.


Vibrant hues of Kantha embroidery adorn, 

Through Patachitra flows the tales of the past. 

Where beats of Baul and Tusu belong,

 Echoes the rhythms that forever last.


From the terracotta temples of Bishnupur,

To the galleries of Shantiniketan's halls.

West Bengal's montage: timeless allure,

Whoever visits, for sure, in love he falls.
