The Link

A close-knit community steeped in tradition

framed rules and customs of fascination

be the one of the gifts to daughters

being a strange practice and a little wonder

establishes a link with the mother’s family

found in the form of gifts during festivals really

while the parents extend it with affection truly

the brothers later go about with a duty effectively

the next generation thinks it a trouble strictly

depending on the longevity of life inadvertently

the custom continues without a break

mainly during Deepavali, Pongal and other stakes

an amount is fixed from the time of her marriage

rendered without a break till the end of her age

a token of love could we abbreviate it exactly

the Nagarathar community sticks to it religiously.

The Overflow

The water overflows

with a gushy force

inundates the land around

marshy becomes the surround

the dampness is so soggy

the feet becomes muddy

as we walk through the place

cautious of a fall in case.

Melancholy sets in gradually

the heart pounds inordinately

could hear a sob intermittently

tears drop down slowly

the face turns puffy

heart-rending it is totally

as we sit watch helplessly

know not how to stop. immediately.

Situations can be linked to nature

being a great healer

the overflows of the water and feelings

relate to each other without readings

statistics and data do not approve

they say it is but a falsity in proves

the parallels might be fictional

yet they have connections perennial

thoughts

The linking of rivers
has been on the air
that should happen on the soil
finds its place on the clouds
long it has been the topic
discussed and designed
all issues dealt mentally
never saw its light physically
if only the linking takes place
the Indian sub-continent
would be the great benefactor
punctuated by floods and paucity
the surplus would be diverted
to the driest place
saving the drought hit
and the inundated area
all at the same time .

A Productive Link

Rivers are source of strength.
Some go dry almost in tenth.
Some flood most in length.
Others remain even at all fronts.

Rivers dry due to failure of rains.
Their runway turns parched creating a strain
Moss and mushroom grow extensively indicating a drain.
They turn into eyesores signifying a bane.

Rivers are in spate due to rainfall copious.
They cross the path in a speed dangerous.
They overflow with a velocity hideous.
The deluge causes disaster all through.

Linking of rivers has long been in the anvil.
This move would save all from evil.
It is a concept which remains idle.
Certainly this link would evade all blink.
