When the present occupant of the “White-House” is gone-
And we never can see “Jackie” any more!
And the little laughing CAROLINE
Who always ran along-
What did they have, that no one had before?
I never can see Caroline, without a little sigh,
And “Jackie” with her dress, so small and slim-
I can’t forget the PRESIDENT, as he went walking [...]

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 [...]

When you’ve set me free.
I will live at home in peace

For someone else’s crime.
I have lived my life in fear,
And I have done [...]

My conversations with the Lord

However, they are thank you notes
For blessings sent to me.
Our talks are rather simple,
And here is what I say
Thank you Lord for staying
The long and dream [...]
