Didactic, preachy,
laborious, round about
comes the accusation
not in this platform
but elsewhere
with reference to my poems
telling a simple thing
with lot of gerunds
and in a round about way
add to the complaint
looking at them felt worried
then brushed aside the criticism
as I feel I write out of passion
write for my satisfaction
not for money or fame
if round about be not to their appeal
let it be so as I continue to write
I am happy for whatever it is
let that be the end.

My Intention
With a withdrawal from the family
as had had an overdose of suffering
finding peace in writing
intending to stay away from the near and dear
if at all they do nurture love
as in my case the truth
being it is always one way so
as I had had enough of it
a toss ,a fall, a push out
with many an episode not forgotten
subjected to humiliation
subdued by outbursts
maintaining silence
just for the peace
wanting not to break the harmony
had been so long quiet and sullen
now turning into a solemn Solomon
with the wisdom getting into the brains
decided to shun those who have caused injury
discard those who have thrown tempers
not wanting to talk to anyone
whatever might be the outcome
remain stoic and strong
as the balance of life is but very little and short
an enlightenment that has come at a very late moment
be it fo good or bad
I really do not know.
Meenu’s Feeling.

moon shining
sun shining heavily

you always shine in my eyes.
I will MISS YOU APPATHA.
I

I always think a about you in my present.
I hope you understand me forever.

A poem written by my grand daughter showing her feelings towards me.
Nice is a simple word
with lot of meaning
carrying innumerable connotations
interpreting various expressions
enumerating different ideas
elucidating numerous thoughts
expressing multitude of feelings
standing for both likes and dislikes
indicating good and bad
involving great and small
all of them in a word
all of them comprised
all of them compressed
with the word “Nice”.
A personification of simplicity
nice,you go o
ut nicely
with a nice smile and a cheer nice too.
Everything is Not right.
The thought of setting things right
The mood to straighten them right
The feeling to get out of the mess right
has slowly left her in the moment right.
Making things work with discipline right.
Taking things forward without any pull back right.
Has taken her toll all through the years right.
and the inkling to end up with a success has left her right.
B
earing taunts and criticism she worked right.
Ignoring the tease and mockery she went ahead right.
Beaten up badly she tried to reassure right
but now the intention to hold things together has left her right.
Treated like a slave all through her life right
Finding fault with her when things do not go right.
Assuming credit when everything goes in the track right
Has sent her long to a place far away right.
Living physically among the crowd now right
while the mind saunters in a land distant right.
She has to carry on silently all the more right.
waiting for an eternal exit soon right.
It Was A sunday.

It was a quiet day.
Is it a Sunday?
None walked down the street all day.
No cars hooted during the course of the day.
Nothing to diffuse the serenity of the day
except the rustling of leaves in the alley,
humming a melodious tune to the breezy wave.
No other thing to distract the quietness
except the murmuring of the river with an eagerness
repeating the flow in a sequential liveliness,
None the less the day passed on untainted.
The day folded naturally without being garishly painted.
The serenity released a sombre feeling much awaited
Let Out
Fighting singly is a let out,
Working alone is a let out,
Thinking different is a let out,
Smiling to oneself is a let out,
Crying uncontrollably is a let out,
Living away is a let out,
Moving ahead is a let out
Speaking truth is a let out,
Fuming with anger is a let out,
Everyone lets you out,
As you find no solace all throughout.
Can we not think about others?
Can we not feel for others?
Can we not help others?
Can we not love others?
Can we not ,can we not?
The heart cries with a vibrance.
Is it not sad to see a flower wither?
Is it not painful to look at a tree rot?
Is it not desperate to view a parched earth?
Is it not wrenching to watch an animal suffer?
Is it not frustrating to witness a man die?
Is it not , is it not?
The heart wails with despair.
Do everyone feel the same manner?
Do all experience the same way?
Do most pass through same passage?
Do the majority go through the cycle?
Do they ,do they?
The heart mourns in anguish
A little consideration takes you a long way,
A little patience leads you to
happiness,
A little feeling brings in joy
A little love endorses a loveliness,
A little , A little,
The mind cheers up the heart.
