Tribute To An Eminent Writer. Poem by Gangadharan nair Pulingat..

He was a great writer of Malayalam
The travelogues he wrote for us
When in childhood, we Knew the world
The places, continents, people, customs
The life, the climate, soil, Hill and all
Here his name is remembered with pride
He traveled for us with beautiful memory
He conversed with all and wrote for all
Together with he wrote beautiful novels
The characters were the depressed, destitute
The insulted, injured, the disabled
The ailing, aged, wealthy, healthy ones
Where human tragedies came in writing
Here while reading make a man worth
To reform better with human kindness
I see in this novelist and writer of travelogues
The real human being who stood with poor
In uneasy way he calibrated the human tragedy
His valuable world experience used for writing
'The story teller'of my beloved mother language
The story of a street with different characters
They lived so happily in streets
Earning a little but enjoying the life more
Here there were lame, phobia stricken,
The cruel, the pious, and boasting characters
The wealthy, influential, and powerful
Who created the world of sorrow somewhere
Writing is for social cause and uplift
The real humans to live with dignity
Here I see a great writer who stood and wrote
With human experiences tragedies, and happiness
Paying the tributes with humility with pride.
