श्री संजय भारद्वाज जी की मूल रचना

 संजय दृष्टि – भूमिकाएँ 

उसने याद रखे काँटे;

पुष्प देते समय

अनायास जो

मुझसे, उसे चुभे थे,

मेरे नथुनों में

बसी रही

फूलों की गंध सदा;

जो सायास

मुझे काँटे

चुभोते समय

उससे लिपट कर

चली आई थी,

फूल और काँटे का संग

आजीवन है,

अपनी-अपनी भूमिका पर

दोनों कायम हैं।

~ Basic Nature… ~ 

He remembered

the thorns,

pricking him,

while receiving the

flowers from me,

though unintentionally;

 

While the smell of

flowers perennially

remained in my nostrils

that came cuddling

while he deliberately

pricked thorns to me…

 

Accompaniment of flowers

and thorns is lifelong…

Both are firm on their

respective roles, unflinchingly..!

श्री संजय भारद्वाज जी की मूल रचना

संजय दृष्टि- अनादि समुच्चय

रोज निद्रा तजना

रोज नया हो जाना

सारा देखा- भोगा

अतीत में समाना,

शरीर छूटने का भय

सचमुच विस्मय है

मनुष्य का देहकाल

अनगिनत मृत्यु और

अनेक जीवन का

अनादि समुच्चय है!

(E-Abhivyakti Congratulates Capt. Raghuvanshi ji for The Passion of Poetry Certificate and for taking the Indian literature across the Globe.) 

~ Eternal Assemblage… ~ 

Getting up from the sleep

in a new incarnation everyday,

Seeing and facing everything;

Fear of leaving the body, and

vanishing into the forlorn past,

Man’s lifetime is actually

perplexingly amazing;

It is nothing but an

eternal assemblage of

countless lives and

innumerable deaths…!

श्री संजय भारद्वाज जी की मूल रचना

 संजय दृष्टि – भेड़िया 

भेड़िया उठा ले गया

झाड़ी की ओट में,

बर्बरता से उसका

अंग-प्रत्यंग भक्षण किया,

कुछ दिन बाद

देह का सड़ा-गला

अवशेष बरामद हुआ,

भेड़ियों का ग्राफ

निरंतर बढ़ता गया,

फिर यकायक

दुर्लभ होते प्राणियों में

भेड़िये का नाम पाकर

मेरा माथा ठनक गया,

अध्ययन से यह

तथ्य स्पष्ट हुआ,

चौपाये भेड़िये

जिस गति से घट रहे हैं,

दोपाये भेड़िये

उससे कई गुना अधिक

गति से बढ़ रहे हैं…!

~ Wolf… ~ 

The wolf took away

a person in the

cover of the bush,

savagely devoured

him limb by limb,

 

A few days later,

the decomposed

remains of the body

were recovered.

 

The wolf count

continued to grow…

 

Then all of a sudden

Everyone was shocked

to find the name of wolf

among the rare animals.

 

The study revealed that

The speed at which

the quadruped wolves

were decreasing,

the bipedal wolves

were increasing

exponentially more

than that…!
