O' Sweet Streak Of Light On The Face With Beauty Of Smile Poem by Dr.V.K. Kanniappan

A policeman and a countryman had almost confronted
in a four way roads crossing corner in one of our city!

The country man was almost fumbled and nervous to the core!
The people who witnessed stood shocked and stunned;

When the viewers were waiting to hear the slapping noise
on the cheek of the countryman in the next moment,

the police officer looking straight at the countryman
gave a broad smile to everybody's surprise!

At that instance, there heard the noise of coming together
of the celestial gods on the horizon in the sky with furor!

There came the voice of greetings from the high sky:
‘O' sweet streak of light on the face with beauty of smile'

The police man had lit his sparkling flame to the lamp of
The man who gets obnoxious rate of interest from the poor!

He came to collect the exuberant rate of interest
from the old woman who sells fruits on the road side!

The poor old woman scratched her head and said to him ‘Tomorrow'
That man without a single word of abuse lighted the flash of light on her!

The old lady who has shined thereto gave two more small oranges
that fell on the cloth of the woman who collects the wastes in the streets!

That woman who occasionally eats orange came across a girl
who begs, she offered one orange to that girl!

A puppy dog at the feet of that girl wagged its tail and begs to her!
She peeled one piece from the orange and threw it before the puppy;

The mangy and hungry puppy dog, in a quick gulp,
swallowed ‘the sweet streak of light' happily!
