Meenas Poems

Talking To The Son

The emotions got her choked
leaving her speechless .
Her heart was heavy with a burden
keeping it within herself was stifling
Called her son who was abroad
knowing not what time it was
As soon as the receiver was taken
she started to talk to the person
damn sure that it was her son on the line
She went on and on pouring out her feelings
On the other end there was a patient listening.
finally she cried impatiently” do you hear me?”
An unfamiliar voice answered in a unfamilair way.
“Mam ,i heard your talk with such emotions
before I could tell you that I am not your son
you started off in such speed nonstop.
My heart goes out to you and I feel for you.
She trembling closed down thanking the patient listener.
Yet her heart now was light.

The Broom

1 Comment on The Broom

There was a broom
in the big room
near the attic
lying static

None used it
but it was fit
With a big stick
and easy to pick.

Why was it lying there?
in a place bare
No one knew
being nothing new.

The idle things
always stings
They need to be thrown
without a frown.

None does so
piling up in a show
things unwanted
in places most wanted.

Learn to condemn
and redeem
both in life material
and in abstract arterial.

My Little Girl

My little girl went for swimming
getting up early in the morning.
The water was pretty cold
but she entered into it quite bold
The instructor was demonstrating the strokes
Two other children were following in spokes.
My little one paid no heed to it at all
and refused to listen to her teacher’s call.
The instructor asked her to get to the lessons.
but my girl took the watering can without any reason.
While the teacher was busy teaching the other three
she poured the water on the teacher’s head with glee..
Surprised and shocked the instructor pulled my girl
and dumped her into the water twice in a whirl.
My little one came out without a tear in her eyes.
i have to tell her to be polite and nice.

Seeing Countries

Seeing countries is great
Seeing them with interest is a state
very often confused with making
short visits to the capital
and then fly back home
Capitals do not make a country.
Short visits do not illustrate well
A stay long would be expensive
but to see we need a longer stay
and thorough round-up of the country side
wherein the real faces show
without the make ups and sophistication.
The tour of the country side
is illuminating and informative
showcasing the culture and tradition
not mixed with overseas inhibition and predicaments.
The food is especially delicious
in the interior far away from the main cities
where pizza huts and Mac Donalds
have crept in and infused their taste.
The attire and the behaviour is truly
seen in the small towns and hamlets
where the diaspora of that particular country
is exhibited in a modest and moderate means
seeming pristine and beautiful pure and exciting.
Seeing countries demands an adventurous spirit
rendering an experience par excellence.

On the equator I lie
Yes, right on the equator
and I burn like fire always
roasting everything
and scorching everyone.
Rains do come in the evenings
with thunder and lightning
They rain like heaven and hell
drying the land the minute they stop.
The rivers flow in full brimming to the top.
There is greenery all over.
Oil palm has replaced rubber in a switch over
But still there is rubber trees to an extent lower
filling the country’s exchequer with a large turnover
The economy thrives and prospers
as the rains give an impetus
to the cash crops blossoming and blooming.
I look green whichever side you see
with gigantic trees and flowers found all over in a spree
I am small lying on the equator a divide of the world.
But as all things small are beautiful
I am beautiful and stately.
Know Who I am ?
I am Malaysia in the far east.

No Comments on Hunger Gets over.——————-Haiku.

The hunger strikes
that of food and drink
appeased in time.

The hunger calls
that of books and knowledge
wanting many more.

Hunger gets over
but sticks on all time
depending on context.

The Man Unknown.

Words of appreciation
from one unknown
from one unseen
keeps me going.
The words are not ordinary
they are extraordinary
with a goading
sometimes with a pat
other times with an applause
most times with a gentle smile
which hold me in my writing
if not for those kind words
I would have fumbled
and would have wrapped up long back
Well ,the man I refer knows who it is
Let him keep it within himself
and let him continue his encouragements
that would take me to great heights
I wish him well in all his endeavours.

Put Them In Their Place.

Crossing over the hurdles with difficulty
on by one in a term slow
meeting one after another
confronting each day new
from the external forces
more so from the internal resources
with the years advancing
still the struggle is not over
with bits and pieces strewn all over
lost many a fortune in the blow over
caught hold of few treasure in the fall over
which are eye sores to the near and dear
aiming to grab it from me at any cost
I hold it to the bosom firmly
withstanding the undue pressure
and legal casse with stoicism
not for me and not for me at all’
but to be passed over to my progeny intact
Meantime I would go limping ahead
with health falling and eyesight failing
but still my hands would remain active
to put them in their place.
