Angelina Pandian Poems

The rain looked down
From her throne
On stately clouds,
'No trees to dance
...

Why did I not answer you?
When you asked me
To become yours
Was it because I knew
...

Anger is the Banyan seed
I secreted in the darkness of my heart
I thought I hid it well from everyone’s view
Until the day I woke up to find it fill
...

What is this Cross? – That we surround ourselves with,

From Birth – baptized with the Cross crowning us
...

Beware of God’s eye warns my brother, my keeper
It follows you every where and there is no place
From where you can hide from it, he says.
Beware before you do or think any wrong to do
...

Hurt when held close
Can not be recognized
Seen through blurring eyes
Nor anything which happens
...

For every fallen leaf
A hundred flowers will bloom
For every fallen tear
A thousand smiles will come!
...

Oh! Burn me in a pyre
Let me be purified
And burnished
Let my ashes
...

True husbandman the Rain
It travels far and long
To gather wares most needed
For livelihood it brings
...
