Happiness In The Mind Of The Lover!
When a beautiful girl walks on the street
In the evening while the sun rays fall on her straight,
There is nice breeze when the hair is floating in the air
Her silhouette is seen in the moonlight with a flare,
It gives a lot of enthusiasm, pleasure
And happiness in the mind of the lover!

Do you know My Dear?
Do you know My Dear?
The dew dropp that does not fall on the ground,
The mysterious dropp that surrenders inside the flower,
The dream dropp that hangs at the tip of a leaf,
The retiring dropp that collects at the edge of the eye,
It is nothing but the remains of our silent conversation!

Everybody should do their duty
Dr.John Celes poem,
'A Barn Owl Finds a New Home',
It is a lesson for everybody;
God gives food,
God gives shelter,
God gives happiness,
God gives health,
God gives wealth;
You pray God,
Everybody should do their duty,
but not greedy;
When God takes care of birds,
would He not men?

Manchester of South India!
Coimbatore is cool in summer,
I was in Red-fields in Coimbatore,
In the ground floor of a house,
Surrounded by flower plants;
Green everywhere,
With red and yellow flowers,
Hot is not felt,
Water is chill;
Weather is cool,
Summer is not felt,
Cool Coimbatore,
Manchester of South India!

Be kind and courteous to the husband
Who / which is
supporting the elderly woman?
Is it the walker or the husband?
The walker never fails,
The husband sometimes forgets;
The walker never protests,
The husband sometimes pretests
and raises his voice;
You can be rude to the walker,
But be kind and courteous to the husband.

It Was Bigger Than The 'Universe
Timely help done to you -
Let the help be however small -
by somebody, whom you
may know or may not know
While you are in trouble,
It was 'a stitch in time'
It was so huge and bigger
than the 'Universe'.

Wealth And Pulpy Fruit Tree
Wealth should be with people
who give the helping hand
to the people who are in need;
This is similar to the pulpy fruit tree
which offers sweet juicy fruits to everybody
when they are thirsty and hungry!
Ref: ThirukkuRaL 216

What have I done, dear, to you....
I feel and ask myself, my love!
What have I done, dear, to you....
Whenever she quarrels frequently
and finds fault with me unnecessarily,
I used to ask myself, 'What have
I done, dear, to you?
Now I understand, 'she thinks that
my love and me are unnecessary'!
What have I done, dear, to you....

Mistake of Fact!
Crow! Crow!
Male crow! Female crow!
Love each other,
Wife and husband;
Wife crow lays eggs,
All are white!
Husband crow suspects
Loyalty and fidelity;
Ignorant husband,
Innocent wife,
Wife crow shows
other nests;
Trust assured
Sorry sorry,
Mistake of Fact, Forget it,
We love for ever!

Possible By Election And Effort
A mosquito is flying across my eyes,
A tiny mosquito which sits on the fruits,
I am trying to chase or snatch it,
But I am unable to catch it.
A person who cannot catch a mosquito,
How can he expect to fetch the government
to get the President post (or) FORT?
It is possible by election and EFFORT.
