Rm. Shanmugam Chettiar Poems

All the plants that I watered
Gave me full of flowers
Both romantic and aromatic
But failed to turn them into fruits.
...

I am happy to see a fair woman,
Happier when I could send her message
And the happiest when she accepts it.
...

For want of sex she strayed out
And had it from her boy friend,
...

My childhood was not aware that
My adulthood would later mock at it.
My adulthood was not aware that
...

Women are potted plants,
With roots not under the ground.
They have no passion for the place
...

A lady of majestic beauty
Made her presence in a party
Letting herself be the object
Of focus with a countenance
...

I didn’t find like you anywhere.
I couldn’t find like you anywhere.
What merit do you have for me
Other than your maiden love across?
...

If with this on I could pull men more
Let this be with me to have and wear.
Likewise it has made all womenfolk
...

Women, don’t talk to men of anything
You don’t wish to be overheard.
Women, don’t make such situation
Where man will take advantage.
...

No remembrance of my great
grandfather,
Who bequeathed us a mansion.
...
