“পাকাপাকি” কবিতা নিয়ে আমার অভিজ্ঞতা
এই লেখায়, আমি বন্ধুদের কাছ থেকে বাংলা বই ও কবিতার পছন্দ সম্পর্কে তথ্য সংগ্রহের অভিজ্ঞতা শেয়ার করব।
প্রথমে বাংলা কবিতা নিয়ে একগুচ্ছ প্রশ্ন তৈরি করেছিলাম। তারপর আমরা একটি গ্রুপ আলোচনা করি এবং অনেক কিছু জানতে পারি আমরা দুজনেই একজনের উত্তর জানতে খুব আগ্রহী।
আমার বন্ধুর প্রিয় কবিতা “পাকাপাকি”। কবিতাটি খুবই গীতিকবিতাপূর্ণ এবং সহজে মনে রাখা যায়। সেজন্যই সে কবিতা পছন্দ করে।
সবচেয়ে মজার ব্যাপার হল আমাদের দুজনেরই প্রিয় কবিতা হল “পাকাপাকি”। আমার বন্ধু আমার প্রশ্নের উত্তর দিতে আরো সময় নিচ্ছিল। সুতরাং, সময়মতো এই কার্যক্রমটি সম্পন্ন করা খুবই চ্যালেঞ্জিং ছিল। কিন্তু অবশেষে আমরা নির্দিষ্ট সময়ের মধ্যে কাজটি সম্পন্ন করেছি এবং এই অনুলিপিটি আমাদের শিক্ষকের কাছে জমা দিয়েছি। আমি সত্যিই আমার বন্ধুর কাছ থেকে তথ্য সংগ্রহের এই কার্যকলাপ উপভোগ করেছি।
