KING OF MELODIES


                              KING OF MELODIES

Agile, immaculately dressed, handsome and an engineer,
 It’s difficult to believe that his sixtieth birthday is so near !

Busy at office as he handles assignments of paramount importance,
Arranges all important meetings of top officials with ease & elegance.

A lyricist par excellence, poetry comes to him very naturally,
His love for women & nature overflows in his poems perpetually.

He draws his inspiration from a beautiful poetess living far away,
His burning desire seeking his distant love, keeps growing every day.

Poems penned rhythmically often become lovely soulful songs,
Many songs from Indian movies are derived from his compositions.

Connections with the world of poetry & music took him to dizzy heights,
Number of commercial song writers are now spending sleepless nights !!

His books on a Nobel laureate launched in various languages,
Made him a household name internationally and across all ages. 

Now amongst top three English Poets world-wide, whom none can displace,
Like Dylan, Lennon & McCartney, his audience is the entire human race.

Belonging to a Royal family of Landlords which once used to stay in Bihar, 
Now in love with Bengal and popularly known as Naresh of Bhadreswar.

His love for family, friends, nature, sports and photography are exemplary,
But his books, rhymes & music are mostly discussed being extra-ordinary.

He has dedicated number of his books & music for the welfare of humanity,
Whatever he does are not for monetary gain but pure measures of charity.

I consider myself very fortunate as I get to rub my shoulders with him often,
He is due to visit US as State guest soon and I will be missing him then.

Success like this however has not made him an unfriendly character
Money, fame and glory notwithstanding, he remains a friend forever.

  Rajbari Itachuna 

A man for all occasions

                         
DC does no longer disappear with shiver due to sudden fever,
Heavy pressure of work has made him look trimmer & stronger.

Files keep coming to his desk in numbers with tags like “urgent’
He disposes those cases first, which HE feels are more important !

Dependability has now become a hallmark of his character
Efficiency & a cool temper have made him extremely popular.

A smiling face, down to earth attitude & ever willing to learn
Such qualities, rare now-a-days, have earned him a good reputation.

Has endeared the bosses too, by sharing important information
His word of mouth is always believed requiring no confirmation.

A staunch believer in the old saying that ‘You reap what you sow’
Helping people including seniors in need, has made his career grow!

While most in office struggle to commute due to embargo on Pick-up
He tackles the issue effortlessly with other groups without any Hiccup!

‘Sherlock’, ‘Poirot’, ‘Felu-da’ etc are the names people gave him affectionately
As he has uncanny power of observation and does his job so passionately.

He is a doting father of two and a very obedient husband after work hours
Goes beyond his physical ability for household chores to show that he cares !

An engineer of extra-ordinary common sense and very friendly behaviour
He is a crisis manager for all (reasons & seasons) and always acts as a saviour.

Having thorough knowledge of all his future worldly needs and that of his family
He has become an owner of two prime properties at his home city already.

Having accomplished things at this young age which is definitely a revelation
He still has time for friends & all others, and that makes him a real champion!!
