I went walking the Hills, and then climbing the rocks,
And carelessly stepped on the Moss;
Who delivered a lot of unbalancing shocks,
While trying too much, to be boss.
Though I usually found my feet able to grip,
At this time, I started to skid.
So I panicced, and had to inevitably slip,
To land on my skin, God forbid.
As I [...]

The Clairvoyant
Little feet hastened on the grass,
To the call of a mother,
She was her mother since those days,
Days of gory crimes the two were unaware,
But there was one man, who knew it all,
He dreamt of white flashes and red rivers,
Suffered a saga of bloodshed,
Drugged himself to forget her,
Forgot her address to protect her.
On [...]

Fortunate
Have you ever considered?
How fortunate you are
To gaze at the sky
And see a star,
And say to yourself
I wonder how many there are?
To walk through a garden
And smell the rose.
Skip through dewy grass
In your bare feet and toes
Before the sun arose?
Take long walks on
A crisp fall day.
Build a snowman
On a cold wintry night
Giving him eyes of [...]

By Heart 4 poetry on July 19, 2009
I feel the the dew
from the fresh cut
grass beneath my
bare feet. The
sweet, alluring scent
of the blossoming
trees catches my
attention as the warm,
peaceful breeze wraps
me in comfort. I
find myself wondering
in a bed of flowers and
just in the middle stands
a delicate, red rose.
The divine beauty stands
as if it is about to speak
for itself. I awaken to
a beautiful spring [...]

By Heart 4 poetry on July 18, 2009
My heart is heavy
and I pray for the weak.
My heart has a burden
as I pray for strength.
My heart is broken
for the child out on the street,
who has no food or home
or shoes on his feet.
My heart is weary
for my journey is so long.
But my heart is ready for heaven.
My Home Sweet Home.
My heart won’t be [...]

It sleeps beneath the grass and leaves,
Wherever the wild winds roam-
The untrod path, of Other Days-
Across the hills toward HOME!
The hurrieing feet of other days,
Have wandered on a thousand ways-
And down the little path toward home,
They can return… no more!
WE KNOW the years MUST drift away-
Till all of them are gone;
Leave only PICTURES of the [...]

My Dream Place
There is a place I’d like to go
Where it’s
Always sunny
And there is no snow.
There is a field
Where the crops all grow.
In this place where there is no snow.
The ocean’s turquoise waters
A perfect match to the skies hue.
In this place I want to go
Where there is no snow.
The gentle breeze in this sunny clime
Is [...]

If god created all creatures equal,
Then why cant I fly like an eagle.
Why cant I soar like that mighty bird,
high above this troubled world.
To fold my wings and soar,
At speeds to high to ignore.
I would catch the wind and float,
Or just fly around and gloat.
Or I could sit and watch with a keen eye,
The world [...]

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. He scanned the hundred faces coming out of the airport for his son. After about forty-five minutes, Arun kumar walked out, waving his hands [...]
