Ramesh T A Poems

What is the secret behind the success of Gandhi's
National freedom movement against foreign rule...?
He studied books to get inspiration and courage to
Deal with colossal movement against Imperial power!
...

Honour lies in the honest toil, but not in the show of bravery in the losing battle
At the cost of people's lives and properties stranded as refugees in alien lands;
But the invader who is losing a lot of old worn out tanks, guns and all is clever;
Though both are equally wrong in this war season, world never cares for wars now!
...

How can the day

Of killing Christ become
...

A boy goes on horse riding to school!
He doesn’t like cycle or bike or vehicle!
His parents work in foreign countries;
They are ready to give him even bike;
...

Music, song and dance in all the nine nights
With a grand finale on the tenth finishes
Happily Navarathri and Dussehra for the work and victory
Of the year in Spring, Summer and Autumn before Winter.
...

I don't understand the poets,
Who spoil the readers of poets!
Can the readers know real poets?
Can they understand real poetry?
...

Rotating sprinkler spraying water over green lawns,
Colourful flowers fully bloomed dancing by breeze,
The buildings standing in sophisticated models, I feel
As if I am stranded in paradise with none besides me!
...

Everyone should ask, 'What is life? ' to know it.
'What does life mean? ' Everyone should think!

Does life mean wealth and comfort in the world?
...

Everyday we wake to see bad world news -
Earthquakes in Japan, Mexico, bomb attacks
In France, Lebanon and in the middle East!
...
