Poem
Vasant Abaji Dahake
On A Rocky Tree
On a rocky tree a mynah,on a rocky road a steamroller,
the white-hot afternoon
setting a bronze bust on fire.
A handsome stallion bred from steel
keeps galloping across an endless plain,
arrested by his bridle.

On A Rocky Tree
On a rocky tree a mynah,on a rocky road a steamroller,
the white-hot afternoon
setting a bronze bust on fire.
A handsome stallion bred from steel
keeps galloping across an endless plain,
arrested by his bridle.
