ஹைக்கூ

எனக்கு பிடித்த விஷயங்களில் ஹைக்குவும் ஒன்று. அவைகளில் இரண்டு இங்கு :)

காதலுக்கு 'கண்' இல்லயாம்
ஆனால் 'கண்ணீர்' மட்டும் எப்படி?

செடியில் பூக்கும் மலரை விட
ஒரு நொடியில் பூக்கும் புன்னகை தான் அழகு!

The Snow Shivers...

On a snowy day
I walked alone
With gloves and caps on
Pushing my hands on the side pockets
To get rid of the coldness
Bending my head down
To stay away from snow hitting my eyes
Crossing the road
Not knowing a car coming across
In a whisker
I stopped behind
Reached the destination
With a sigh of relief
Shivering in cold
Spluttering away the snow in my shoes
Looked at the mirror
Seeing the red ears
I thought
I wish I had a car

See-Saw...

Tired of rough tides
Knocked up by tough decisions
In the forgiving cloud
Running between thuds
Watching the mountains
Remembering the fountains
I let it go
Wondering so
Life is all about
Giving with no doubt

Came back from the memories
Holding the pleasant ones
Came back from the past
Leaving the tough ones

Feeling rejuvenated
Looking refreshed
With sizzling energy
Towards relieved synergy

Exploring the unknown
Life goes on...

The dreamboat

Happiness in its extremity
Shows beauty in its entirety

I listen to songs
I feel the melody in it
I watch the nature
I feel the beauty in it

I hop...
I jump...
I sing...
I giggle...
I dance...
I dream...
I nod...
I twist...

I do everything in haste
Not considering it as waste

I feel the bliss
Not sure to miss

Even in shower
I can see its power

I don't know whether God exists
But I know this exists

Greagious amidst the lonely
I call it as 'love and love' only!!!

Towards the shore float
That's my dreamboat :)

A Known Stranger

Origin:
I was sitting in the aisle looking at the passing clouds. Was thinking about 'Where has my creativity gone?'. It's been a long time since I squeezed my mind atleast a bit to come up with something new. I took a paper and pen and started writing about 'A Known stranger'. When I read it after completion, my heart was filled with a sense of fulfillment reminding me that the sense of coming up with a 'new' novice thing still resides in me.

Whereabouts:
A Known stranger he is in me
But an unknown face to win me

I wonder why he comes only once in a blue moon
And yearn why this time does not come soon

'Like' is a word of average usage when I mean him
'Hype' is a word of pompous usage when I get to see him

Nothing but a sense of happiness
That erodes my drowsiness

He comes when there is no anticipation
And goes when there is exuberation

He taught me 'Life is an illusion'
Where I saw him in hibernation

Neither can I argue
Nor can I bid adieu

A known stranger he is in my chart
Yet close to my heart

I see him in beams
And I call him 'Dreamzzzzz'

Poem...

I was walking near my apt and started with verses for a new poem...It suddenly hit my mind without any reason. I sat and wrote the whole poem as it started flowing continuously from my mind. I wrote it in Tamil and read it after I felt that I have completed it...

But now, I forgot where I kept it after leaving the place. Need to find that small piece of paper which has the tamil inscriptions legibly engraved on it...

Although I remember the verses that I wrote, I want to post it here the way it was actually written - A photocopy of it...But where will I find it? Oh...My poem...Where are you hiding?

The second attempt!

This time in English...

Thoughts wandered...
Ideas flickered...
Memories triggered...
Emotions secured...
All in one place
That's my bathroom :)

Un Aruginil - My first Tanglish attempt!

Please bear with me and my kavidhai. After all, I am a budding Kavingi :)

Nee illamal en thookam illai
Nee illamal naan aludhadhillai
Nee illamal en cell phonekku uraividam illai
Nee illamal en ragasiya kanavugal illai

Autumn, Springs, Summer, Winter endru ella kalamum vandhu pogiradhu
Aanal nee mattum ennai vittu poga marukirai
Appa, Amma, Akka, Uyir thozhargal endru ellorum avargal thisai nokki
Aanal nee mattumo en thisai nokiye...

Naan veetukku vandhal en kanmunne nee
Naan laptop eduthal en kanmunne nee
Ipdi enakkagave ennaiye edhirparkum nee
Unnoda Vaazhadha Vazhvenna Vazhvu???
Ey thalaiyananye...Ey thalaiyanaiye...
Eppodhume en aruginil nee...
