Bashyam Narayanan Poems

Life, people say, a journey
Indeed, it is a journey through emotions
Life turns dry
If it is without that
...

Water
Is the one source from
Which all living things originated
...

I came to life
With a gentle electrical shock
And a mild tremor
When an egg from my mother’s ovary
...

A person of strong
Likes and dislikes
Expressed his feelings
Irrespective of their
...

It was a brightly lit afternoon
I saw a four legged machine
Descending on me slowly
...

A butterfly finds its way back

It was a drift from the path
It took place sometime back
...

I want to be jailed
Confined
Isolated
Insulated
...

This day last year
20 June 2012
We saw off a soul
His mortal remains
...

The birth day that came immediately after marriage
We were married in the first fortnight of September
It was an arranged marriage
My mother’s elder sister came out with this alliance
...

Crying is an emotional outburst
Of a discomforting situation
Accompanied by shedding tears
And sobbing, which may last longer
...
