Over The Head


Over the head 
lies a sword  
dangles to and fro
about to descend any time  
comes the wind in a blow 
the sword falls down with a thud 
not on the target  as expected 
but down below  with a blare  
be it an end of danger 
a symbol of significant peace
the head escapes unhurt 
the taint remains  unfazedover the head.

Grants


There is  in my country

 impetus to every scheme

with the noon meal in schools 

 to the school bags  and slippers 

there runs a long list  in stretch 

comes there the  job for all

 extend one hundred rupee 

an hourly basis routine 

along with that noon meal 

 few more indices 

a television set  for the needy

 free power to the poor 

 seat allocation for the backward  class

in schools and colleges 

 age relaxation for the schedule  tribes 

in admission and retirement 

 a  discreet case study grades 

all these to a level of defunct

The River in My Town.


The river in my town. Vaigai  in name 

 flows with a frown

runs almost brownvaigai

 dry not on its own.

 ruined by a tone 

it is mostly known

 the contamination  is sown

 by man as shown 

who revers nothing grown

tarnishes most to a bone 

naked it lies with a moan

patiently borne 

its charm slips unhoned 

the river is dead  in the drone 

 a sad end to the mighty flown

The Curry leaves,


The coriander  plants 

 shoot out green leaves 

on all seasons without fail

 greener during rainy days 

paler in the hot months 

healthy  most of the year

spotted they  turn 

when rains fail 

 bloom profusely  with cheer

 spread a pleasant smell all over

 collect them every day 

 they  being  an ingredient 

to season and supplement 

 the diet with aroma and iron 

Lovely they look when cooked 

Lovelier they seem 

as they dangle  in breeze 

 great is their value in regular terms 

 greater they stand with heads high

when tagged with medicine .

Simplicity overwhelms  gracefully.

Essential they are for preparation.

Cheap and best in diction.

brushed aside wholly by most 

held in esteem by a few

like to sing their praise 

commend their value 

with a fervour and passion

they do  carry  voluminous refer  

with a coy bright decor.

.

The Wish


M17

The unrest in the world
goes without a word
the disturbance exists
unable to resist
the governance staggers
new spark triggers
battle starts in no time
airplanes fall in a trend
innocent die in hundreds
old and young in the trend
apprehensive to fly to places
the Atlantic poses a danger in space
a route round the Pacific
turns expensive and terrific
security is the look out
Well, there should be a way-out.
Peace on earth and goodwill
should enter into the bill.
It is the wish of all in intensity
should happen with a passion.

The Resemblance


The resemblance strikes much
a father and son as such
look similar in features and physic
mannerism takes the lead in a trick
the significance is so obstinate
takes one by a seize in an instant
realization dawns a little late
the age factor comes in straight
the difference shows father and sonup quick
that be a study in terms alike.

A Story Told


A story told
is retold
year-long it goes
from ear to ear it goes
add ups are too many
left outs are very many
it turns sweet at times
becomes sour at times
loses its originality
reads as though new
a different tale in lieu.

Well Within You.


Best be what you do

not forget what is to you

incline towards it in true

set out with a motive all true.

The efforts put by you

be strong and steadfast in true

shrug not at any cost

nor go about it in fast.

Do the best at all point

It is well within your joint.

Does this sound as a preach?

Sure, it is within your reach.

do your best.

The Rains Come Finally


The day is a shine and a dine
with a clouds almost in nine
the weather seems to be fine
with the rain almost to pour
the drops come in four
thunder descends in a roar
the clouds draw to a close
the sky engages in blows
the drizzle sets in with no force
lightening strikes with a blind
the battle is fought with a bind
the vapours burst out from hind
the rains fall down in torrence
a struggle in exasperation
Well! it turns out to be an inspiration.

Environment


The environment as such
only few trees in bunch
no other greenery around
trees too very old in the round
proposebrook without water a sordid outlook
by the side of a brook
with very little water
no birds to chatter
looks so desolate and dull
seems like a murder in all
with no life around in the call.
