Veeraiyah Subbulakshmi Poems

O Sheep, Don't bleat,
and look for trouble,

Graze on the mowed lawn,
...

there is a stampede in the gap,
between the pillars and the top,
the voice of these feathered souls,
heard through day and still night,
...

No one is here for me; except you,
to hold my hands with love.

No one is here for you; except me,
...

Before they come with their case,
please fly away far with ease,
it is a matter of days, chirping birds,
please fly away far with ease.
...

When they cry, I may not be there,
to embrace and wipe their tears,
the feeling of someone nearer,
makes me safer, it may be a soul,
...

The beginning and the end not known,
the path ends in destination unknown,
robes of Dharma strong and sewn,
every actions, the reflection of old form,
...

I will not be sent to hell,
for the mistakes I have made,
I may have the rebirth,
to live the life of inferno.
...

I have gone into the jungle,
to look for the chicks to tickle,

the drops from stalagmite twinkle,
...

The lone traversals knocked our doors,
not in past, but before diamond years,
They need not ask for food, water and shelter,
Verandah for them to stretch and rest.
...

Words of sour, bitter and hot,
not the food for the, hearts,
Words of vitamins are a lot,
a little of it do wonderment,
...
