Love me not
love me not with fear
love me dear.

House Has A large Heart.
It is open to all
free to anybody in call
I mean not any other
be it my own rather
the house is large-hearted and kind
does not discriminate any of a kind
accommodates me in a full stretch
gives place to cats as such 
squirrels run up and down all familiar
lizards crawl and climb in a similar
cockroaches come out in the night
birds flock together presenting a lovely sight
mosquitoes used to barge in with a force
have been banished with a net in close
my gardener lives with his family
so do the cook and his allies
the watchman and the driver come and go
while my maid works rather slow
the coconut trees grow all around
the mangoes and guavas create a bound
the curry leaves are in abundance
the Tulasi is worshipped with a reverence
the crows and the parrots are guests of honour
so are the butterflies and insects in order
a fewer vegetables are in the backyard
where the brick wall is in guard
very much to say my house is large
where everything is free of charge

All Are Hooked
Beautiful she looks
Like a picture in a book
All are hooked.

The Teacher.
A teacher shouts hoarse
Her voice is so coarse
Cracks at the high pitch
Lòoks as though it needs a stitch
The poor one has to earn
So never takes rest in turn
Yells with all her might
She would lose her voice straight.
Tomato is so red
looks like blood
I love the colour
never in a pallor
the redness dazzles
the tomato baffles
used in all almost
could find them in the toast
scattered in the salad
sung in the ballad
found in the gravy
heals the scurvy
a skin toner in a way
keeps blemish at bay
tastes so nice
mixed with rice
a liveliness in
till it goes to the bin
a lovely vegetable
proud to have it in the table
never too expensive
affordable and defensive
an agent of immunity
consumed by the primitive
continues its utility
great and curative.
