In Memory Of Jayanta Mahapatra

I remember How did Jayanta Mahapatra Send me the books By post Or parcel me When I requested him to send The whole set of his books, His photographs And I received the Xerox-copies Of earlier volumes, Of those out of print And out of stock, Unavailable? I could not believe That he would respond to me But he did And the books reached me, Xerox copies of Close the Sky Ten by Ten, A Father's Hours, Life's Signs, Dispossessed Nests And a copy of Chandrabhaga Together with Svayamvara and Other Poems, A Rain of Rites, Waiting, The False Start, Relationship, Random Descent, Bare Face, The Lie of Dawns But I liked his phots most, His beautifully handwritten etters, Waiting, Door of Paper And his quick response.
