Indira Renganathan Poems

"Ma, dad comes home late at night daily
So he's Late Dad "said son happily
Shocked mom said " no he's not
What am I then? retort"
...

Night is not the moon-filled silvery Night
Night is not the star-filled glittery Night
Night is not the evil-filled eerie Night
Night is not the death-route of deadly Night
...

Oh my darling sons and daughters
I'm a different mother now
I'm a different mother that
You would have never thought of
...

The greens! being denuded or dressed?
I do not know..but
Wind's in crude breezy play
Then comes the bright sunshine
...

Watching

Swooped diving on to a leaf
With a bit of meat in his beaks
...

Alarmed were the people of that town
Ambulance running here and there down
'Boil Boil'was the slogan everywhere
Bitterly affected by the water there
...

Detect, select..
To yourself
Specify adorable
Attainable ask..
...

There is one particular day
That bothers me daylong
Again and again
It comes in repeats
...

I sweep this way, I sweep that way
To gather the clutter right way
I sweep this way, I sweep that way
If only I'm held the right way
...

When the sun shines on the wall
When the wind blows on the tree
At once there's a shadow art
Does the tall tree on the wall
...
