Rajendran Muthiah Poems

We had no words, on seeing
the confluence of the holy Ganges
and the overflowing Yamuna at Alahabad.
The priests pestered us
...

A gypsy was left to the mercy of God,
along with her two children in rags.
To give her hell, her husband has left her there.
Dowry or giving birth to only girls,
...

We ran so fast
by a mizzling road
to Doddabetta,
the highest peak of Nilgris.
...

Don't you remember seeing me?
In my dreams you call on me.
A shorter time I stayed there.
Yet your face doesn't leave me off.
...

You are gifted to naturally smile
but I go into raptures by your meek glance.
Your innocence doesn’t mean you’re frail;
yet a look at you fells me into trance.
...

a stripling reels
and the sage tumbles.
When she smiles,
2.
...

My house was rent free,
to a bold bandicoot,
a secular intruder
to enjoy a free run.
...

I travel oft deep into my self
confined to the inner recesses
of my body-mind complex.
Expecting to marvel
...

For our youths to attain
personality normal and fulfilling
resolve the crises within and without
or else they are easy preys
...

Loss of seized contraband from the police
means they are taken out on a lease
for the accused to go free
and the smugglers to be in glee.
...
