दिनेश अधिकारी
दिनेश अधिकारी, नेपाली कवि तथा गीतकार हुन् । तीक्ष्ण संवेदना र प्राञ्जल शैलीका धनी कवि अधिकारीका कवितामा एकातिर समकालीन सन्दर्भप्रतिको यिनको संवेदनशीलता प्रखर ढङ्गले उजागरित भएको पाइन्छ भने अर्कोतिर मानवजीवनका शाश्वत र नैसर्गिक भावहरु पनि उत्तिकै टड्कारोसित अनुगुञ्जित भएको सुन्न सकिन्छ । उनका फुटकर कविताहरूको संगालो "अतिरिक्त अभिलेख" एक मनमोहक काव्य-पुञ्जको रूपमा आएको छ । विम्व, प्रतीक, व्यञ्जना, वक्रोक्ति, व्यंग, सूक्ष्महास विद्रोह, पीडा, बुद्धि र भावनाबीचको समन्वय, लयसंवेदना आदि सबैको सम्यक् सन्तुलनको कारण दिनेश अधिकारी एक आकर्षक कवि हुन् ।
