Parameswaran Nair Damodaran Nair Poems
I open my window to let in the morning light and the cool fresh air
Though in the midst of a legion of works assigned for the day
The girl servant next door fills my heart with her innocent smile
Like a pure dew drop glares from the grass-top in the dawn
...
I was a part of your body for two hundred and eighty days
A full time parasite sucking away all your blood.
Causing numerous ailments, tension, stress and strain
Despite all these you didn't feel a bit of hatred for me mom?
...
Every day I saw him tied to the mango tree
Like man is held fast to life with the cord of endless ambition
I saw in those dying dusks affection glittering in his gazing eyes
...
"Loss of mother is death of the child"
No compensation can make up the loss
All privileges of childhood are denied to him
...
Every dawn is dear to me.
It's then that I see her blushes
reflected in the eastern sky.
While I wander here in her search
...
Watching the children walking along the road to and fro their schools
My heart leaps high wishing to join their merry-making, cheerful funs
Realising I am not made of flesh and blood my poor heart retreats in dismay
Here on the veranda of this textile shop I have been in deep penance for long
...
They say pointing out to evidences
Planet Mars was once rich
With abundant water sources
Who knows the earth,
...
'Loka Samastha Sukhino Bhavantu'
(Lét the whole world be happy)
One who keeps such wish in mind
One who keeps no discrimination
...
While we shared on the beach moments
Facing the setting sun and the glooming waves
I noticed, amidst the last glow of the setting sun,
Dreams gleaming in your deep blue eyes.
...
He busy ferries people from dawn to dusk across the dreadful river
Holding fast in his tender hands the rough hard rows in such early age
To feed a dozen hungry stomachs left behind by his bereaved father.
Putting aside his school bag and leaving the much loved playmates
...
Many a rainbow appears
and disappears in the sky
Flowers abundant bloom
and wither in the garden
...
SALVATION
PoemBy DPN
How long have I been waiting for you here on this threshold
...
Millions are starving
And we celebrate new year
Gorging and swilling
...
Every day at the end of my prayers
I make a bowl of my palms and hold it before thee
For a splendid gift without being asked
Your Godly jest surpasses my wit
...
When you stay beside
It's spring all around;
My mind flies up
Like a cuckoo in search
...
As you distance yourself from truth
You create a rift between you and God
You have to hide your face behind masks
To save the false impression you spread,
...
Birth launches the journey to death.
Make precious the moments in between
Like a lapidary enriches gemstones
...
Hear the knocks at your door
It's the new year with gifts so rare
Relinquish apprehensions and greet.
...
This emerald grass in the valley
stays in silent prayers all nights
With extended begging hands
For love eternal and immaculate
...
Throw not stones to calm pools
Raising ripples that never still.
The stones sink down the bosom
Choking and undulating the depths
...

The Best Poem Of Parameswaran Nair Damodaran Nair
A Homage
I open my window to let in the morning light and the cool fresh air
Though in the midst of a legion of works assigned for the day
The girl servant next door fills my heart with her innocent smile
Like a pure dew drop glares from the grass-top in the dawn
No child labour prohibition ever peeps into her pains and miseries
No humanists rise in revolt to protect her from cruel exploitation
She can be the foetus that grew up surviving all efforts of abortion
She may be the female baby abandoned to avoid a culpable burden
Why can't she be the lost child of parents who regret carelessness?
Whatever be the prelude, the merciless ill-treat is inhuman indeed
She works hard from dawn to midnight yet the mistress is displeased
Scolding, beating, blowing, pushing and pulling aren't new to her
This morning I terribly missed her and I was shocked to learn
She is not alive to cast a charming innocent smile at me ever again!
It was a murder, a brutal sexual assault so cruel and inhuman
Let these drops of tears be my homage to thee, dear child

Parameswaran Nair Damodaran Nair Quotes
Begone days were sweet, Beggining days be sweeter
The greatness of a man is not decided by what he earns but by what he gives
The greatness of great people will be great when they recognize the greatness of the people who are not great
Distance between two is short in good relation, Farthest in strained relation
Wind goes where there is a depression
Intimacy bars no privacy Privacy bars no intimacy
A lamp without oil cannot burn to give out light
A poor man's bowl is always empty because poverty is a subject for debate and discussions only
The wise, though hungry, will not overeat damaging stomach
Only a hard climb can take you atop the hill
Your palms can protect the flame of your burning lamp From the breeze, but not from the whirlwind
Life is beautiful if you make it so
No fish will walk out of the water to gasp
A miser never turns in at the hour of need, but at last with lame excuses
To a greedy miser relationship has no bar
To be between the scorching sun and the blistering sand
Prayers may not change the situation But can change our attitude And give us hope that can change our life
No candle loses it's light while lighting another candle
He who avoids to pluck and pain the flowers is dearer to God than He who offers them to Him
Humbleness of the greedy is the poison for cheating
Jasmine smells the same everywhere
The deaf makes out stories different from what comes out from other's lips
Lust leads to loss, Loss leads to learn
It's a coward who seeks shelter under lame excuses
Regrets won't help you regain the unutilised opportunities
Too many legs spoil the race
Do not throw stones into the calm pond Your image will be lost rippled and crippled
Splinters of broken promise cause a broken heart
Value of anything in plenty is realised only in it's scarcity
All tears tastes no salt
Love is not a small bait for hooking big catch
Shower on your love and let me quench my thirst like a hornbill
Love bubbles in the stream of life And bursts in the flow of time
Democracy is not entangling people inside the citadel of party policies and exploiting their manpower and mismoulding their intellect by enforcing hate through lies and discrimination
Every flower is a foot print of beauty
To love and to be loved is our right You and me are created for the sake
Every adversity is a prelude to possibility
Success is his friend who dislike failure
Learn to act to be a success
Time decides the value of our deeds
Seeds of bitter gourd will give seedlings of bitter gourd only
Desire is the fire that burns down the thorns along the path to success
Know the shadow and keep the sun behind
If you can't forget, don't remember If you can't remember, don't forget
Forgetfulness is the grave where you bury your pains
Education is not the exercise of memorising the lessons, but a process of adopting morals, virtues, philosophy and ethics according as a cultured society demands
Anything we love seems beautiful to us
Anything we love seems beautiful to us
Counting both on a miser for charity and on a frail woman for chastity are alike
No sea vessel can cut through the waves without pitching and rolling,
