When I was young, there was a song-”when I leave The World Behind”-
I’ll leave the sunshine, for the summer-
I’ll leave the tree tops, for the breeze,
I’ll leave the moon above, for those in love-
When I leave the world, behind!
I’ll leave the moonlight, for the dreamers,
I’ll leave the great ships for the seas-
And for the “Old [...]

He put his arms around her-
It made the poor girl sick;
Was is true? what her Pa said?
That “he was a-damn-poor-stick?”
HE PUT HIS ARMS AROUND HER;
She was far away from HOME-
She told him “I NEARLY FROZE TO DEATH!”
In……my little bed… alone.
He put his arms around her-
But that was away last week;
An his new car was ready [...]

December is finally here after 11 months of waiting,
loving NOT hating.
And definitely ice skating
Snow on the ground,
friends and family all around.
Hugging and kissing
and reminiscing.
Presents will be given and received.
But we ALL agree that the most important thing though
is the birth of baby Jesus .
The one who died on the cross
for us. Because of our sins!

The Lufthansa flight from Newyork landed in Chennai at 2:15 AM, thirty minutes later than the scheduled arrival time. Mohanasundaram was waiting at the arrival terminal with increasing anticipation.

”Hush little baby
don’t you cry.
We’ll soon be in
heaven by and by.
Don’t frown or fuss
my little one.
Don’t cry or whine
just have some fun.
We’ll soon see God
who lives on high.”
This is every mother’s
lullaby.

Present Day
It was the first Monday in weeks when I was not in office before ten. As I saw the frosted sundial of my old citizen ticking eleven thirty, I cursed myself for the umpteenth time for choosing that insurance company. I found out that the other companies did not require so many tests after [...]

I remember trying to fit
Through the dryer
Attempting to escape
I remember a year later hearing
My own t-shirt strangulation story
Suddenly dramatized by my imagination
I remember keeping well-balanced meals
In universal equilibrium on the tray
So as not to offset terrestrial alignment
I remember medicine in sweet tart form
Real psychos
Believed they were candy, but I caught on
I remember that [...]

Ever present was the feeling,
He was missing out on life,
When the girl he met got pregnant,
And he took her as his wife.
Many plans were in his future,
Many things that he would do,
Now he has a wife and baby,
And he feels his life is through.
Though he tried to be courageous,
Though he tried to be a man,
He [...]
