Rm. Shanmugam Chettiar Poems

Writing is the beast way of expression.
I don't feel shy to spell out my love to her.
I don't feel humiliated when I beg.
I'm not embarrassed to seek one's pardon.
...

Equal and opposite forces are at work.
Each organism is connected.
Each nonliving thing is connected.
Nothing exists in the isolation.
...

Virtue wears a veil, out of modesty.
Vice wears a mask, out of secrecy.
The wise detect the mask from the veil.
The majority mistakes each for the other.

A replacement of masturbation;

But unite by a kind.
Cat and rat vary in degree
But unite by a kind.

If you feel no hurt when you're hurt
And if you feel no rage when usurped
Then you are Saint designate.

The plaited hair gave way for a chignon;
The low neck blouse is made a close neck one.
A plain silk sari in the place the voile;
A poise look replacing the inmate's look;

Don't grow old till you have been wise.
Don't grow wild till you have been just.
Don't grow mad till you have been rational.
Don't get mature till your mind has matured.
...

A high I. Q. is redundant to grow rich.
It is one of factors to reach the top.
Luck matters the most and E. Q. comes next.
Diligence and perseverance matter.
...

To keep promises, to keep commitments,
To please some ones and to boost one's ego
A man is tempted to use evil means.
Such ones are on the way to perdition.
