The excitement mounts as the megadrive loads,
“That’s him! I can see him! Right there!”
Now all the people are screaming and shouting
At the guy with long blue hair.
So, who is this babe?
This iconic beauty?
He’s a video-game prince,
Sonic Hedgehog by name.
He leads a heavenly life,
Desired and lusted by millions,
You would have guessed it,
Since he is perfection.
Is it [...]

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 [...]

Like Orpheus, I was longing to turn
To see if you were still there
But should you see me,
Everything would disappear
Unaware of messengers watching
One glance from you exploded the seal
On my ordinary existance. Crowded bazaars
Became our private meeting places.
Duties became intrusions and we became defiant,
As heroes were to gods -
Still children. forgetfully holding each other
Through the midnights: [...]

Marriage
A day set apart by two special people
Emotions are bound to arise
Pensive, magical, mysterious.
Exciting, intriguing, joyful
Wondering if their choice is wise.
Because marriage is a sacred bond.
It takes two people
Who cared enough about each other
To enter into a sacred covenant that has no equal.
Because two individuals are now one.
Sharing every joy, happiness, sickness, sadness under the [...]

Pouring Out Your Heart
Saying what is really in your heart
Indeed, a very difficult task.
All kinds of things pass through your mind
And asked to explain
Would be rather hard to impart.
How do you tell someone?
How much you love them
Without becoming emotional
Tripping over every word uttered sincerely
From the heart.
There are so many different kinds of [...]

Thursdays with Little friends
I look forward to Thursday
To spend some time
With my little friends
It is one day of the week
That I really enjoy no end.
The cordial way that I am greeted
And the respect that I am shown
Gives me the same feeling
That I used to get,
After being away a long time,
And then [...]

The small boy falls and hurts his elbow and knees,
and cries quietly on the inside,
because there is no one there to feel his pain,
or give him comfort,
for the small boy is 86 years old.
His skin is wrinkled and his bones are frail,
but the ’small boy’ in him still lives with the same wonders,
fears and insecurities,
that [...]
