1 She knows not English
Just 'II form' passed, there stopped
Those days' in Tamil
Her dignity posed
No less poised with'The Hindu'
Up side down one day
Grand-kids bullying...
'Where does Porunai begin? '
'Arabikkadal' she answers
2 One more old woman
Talking to gods up skyward
To all devatas
Bullying grand-kids
Note down all talked to playful
Pastime reading fun
3 Yet another man
Old from the next neighbourhood
Wandering along
Forgets his own house
Gets into some other home
Sent out much mocked at
Leave alone the kids
Even the adults laugh at
Why do they laugh psychotic...?
Note: In earlier days 7th grade or 7th standard was known as
'II Form'
'The Hindu' is a daily English News Paper
'Porunai'is a river and 'Arabikkadal' is Arabian sea
