Radhakrishna Pillai Poems

As I stand alone in the lambent moonlight,
On a high flat land where the ocean sprays up
Endlessly, when waves meet sands ashore,
I feel the wind, its chill and the tales it whispers
...

The Achaeans sinned with swords and spears
Then offered meat to Poseidon
And prayed for favours and pardon.
Now You sin with your tongue
...

When green turns to brown
You cry for water, the water of life
That makes you what you are
And what you would be
...
