Poetry : Village Fair ⬆️

Poet  :  jotsna jari

 The destination is far away
 you have to walk
 across the villages 
 The Baishakhi fair is further away 
 There are merry-go-round
  rows of various shops
  The anchoring goes on... 
  win the lottery of just ten rupees
 yes...    get big pots & buckets 
 No, not like a TV screen...  
 there is no celeb moderator/anchor 
 Yet people rush 
 listen to him
 buy tickets
 In the various deep sound of the fair
 How many winners come 
  to the Lottery stage...   
 they leave with the prizes in hand
 Those happy faces
 walk along the soil-way
  in the fresh air
  As they move...
  they sing few songs 
  their accumulated pain
  is washed away 
  in that tune...
