Dr. Antony Theodore Poems

If my mind has fragrance
i shall find you in the fragrance.
I shall sense you and hug your smell.
I shall breathe in, your fragrance
...

A child burns her hand on the stove
and a fear of fire begins.
In a tender moment, a hand is slapped
and a fear of love begins.
...

We are born with a centre
free in every sense.
Free of expectations
ambitions and embarrassments.
...

I am your mother, loving and holy.
Come and suckle from my breasts
until you are no more thirsty.
From these consoling breasts
...

Because you love me,
Lord, I am allowed to live.
Because you love me,
Lord, I want to live
...

Mum, you make me smile.
When you kiss the sole of my foot
You make me smile.
When you kiss my little stomach
...

If knowledge was our greatest need
God would have sent to us
a universal genius.
...

There will be doors
that close before you.

When a door closes
...

God is my consolation.
Why should I be anxious?
Anxiety takes my smile away.
...

I heard his steps
in the depth of the night.

It slowly became rhythmic.
