String of Three

English be not my mother tongue

the primary language I studied

along with my ancient mother tongue

with the flair for both indeed

I pursued the study

reached the level of masters

not in both actually

English took me over faster came

came out with honours really

worked on my language Tamil too

it came naturally to me

a language with intricacies not few

hard to get through in glee

French, a lovely tongue musical to the ears

was my second language in college

delighted to read the French literature for years

these three had made me full fledged

know not how well I write in English,

nor do I know my status in Tamil

dare not I venture to write in French

this way my life goes in peace

stringed with three languages in ease.

thoughts

An outflow of words
there being no meaning
but be it full of notes
pleasing to the ears
making the heart happy
getting into the depth
there we feel no sense
as it is a string of words
blowing up too much
nothing pertaining to reality
something bordering on emptiness
yet it reaches many and more
how much it be shallow
that does not bother
but raised to great levels
by the one who uttered
and by the one who heard
that being the easiest way
the facile win all over
called as an interesting conversation
termed as an engaging convention.
