About the Work

"बेसहारा बेल" employs rich imagery and metaphor to depict the struggle of a vine striving to reach the sky. Through vivid language, the poem captures a sense of isolation and neglect, yet it also conveys a hopeful resilience. Anand's use of nature as a metaphor for human emotion adds depth and layers to the narrative, inviting readers to reflect on themes of perseverance and the quest for connection.

Original Submission by Riya Anand

~ बेसहारा बेल ~

इक बेसहारा बेल हूँ मैं,

आसमां छूने के ख्वाब थे कुछ ।

अब भी ही हूँ कोशिश में ,

दीवार से हूँ अजब सी तपिश में ,

साथ देने के बजाय

तोड़ दिया टुकड़ों में,

वो भी सोचता होगा

कैसा मैं दिखूँगा उसपे ?

लोग कैसा देखेंगे ?

कुछ बेजान पत्तों के अलावा

फूल जो नहीं मुझमें ।

फिर से जुड़ने के लिए

धूप मैं था ढूँढता

पर वो तो नहीं मिला ।

इक बेसहारा बेल हूँ मैं,

लोग कहते सूखा खर,

उनकी भी क्या गलती है, वो

नज़रंदाज़ करते हैं क्योंकि,

किस्से से मेरे गाफिल जो ।
