Venmathi R Poems

'I' springs from the body and mind
But identified itself in the 'We'

Inquiring the 'Other' through the 'I' is philosophy
...

Let us go down the memory lane
To cherish 'blowing soap bubbles'.
The first time you merely blow air
It's a mess; alright.
...

Six decades of life
A symbol of experience,
Maturity or immaturity?
...

Life is not as we think
But is as it is
Decisively and decidedly
It is how we perceive
...

Deep down from within
Life seems meaningless
Yet made meaningful
By the outside.
...

Frustration, fanaticism
And Fetishism
Breed terrorism.
...

Nature's fury
Knew no bounds
A year or so.
...

The new millennium just born
In a world small and snugly
Roughly the reap of 100 years
Toil, turmoil and change.
...

A newborn cries
When it comes from
Darkness to light.
...

If you speak to God
It is worship.

If you do not speak to God
...

If life is a contradiction
Be aware of it.

If life is a festival
...

The Best Poem Of Venmathi R

About 'i'

'I' springs from the body and mind
But identified itself in the 'We'

Inquiring the 'Other' through the 'I' is philosophy
Understanding the 'We' through the 'I' is Ideology.

Negating the 'I' is shedding one's ego
Exploring the 'I' is psychology.

Sharing the 'i' with the 'We' is philanthropy
Merging the 'I' in the 'We' is social service.
Dissolving the 'I' in the 'We' is sacrifice.

Narcissistic image of 'I' is Dictatorship
The link between 'I' and the 'Other' is existence
Symbolising the 'Other' and the 'I' is God.
