Kaumaram
Handsome an ism of an ism
Outsparkled Shanmukham of Shiva's ism
Wary Spear of Shakti's ism
Heroism of slaying demonism
Supreme Knowledge of GnanaSkandam
Subhramanya of sprawling macrocosm
Awesome His charismatic blossom
On earth august His truism
Related isms relative to His Theism
Valli-Deivanai-ataraxia delightsome
Rooster-peacock-amity winsome
Reigning Kumara of sacred Kaumaram

Valliyur
Providential wish!
Daughters of Thirumal, to the eye-born sisters
Amirthavalli and Sundaravalli
Preached Lord Muruga Shatakshara mantra
Offered in return the sisters gratefully
Both themselves to marry Muruga
But ordered them Muruga to be born anew
Then to conjoin Him
Deivanai and Valli hence their incarnate next
Providential command!
Demon Padmasura to be slain
Amid the oceanic silence of Tiruchendur
Prior slain brother Taraka the hill-demon Krauncha
Gifted, much cheered Devendra
Daughter Deivanai to valorous Muruga
Seated the couple encaved at Tiruparankundram
Tri-pieced Taraka, slain head hurled off
Mahendragiri hill defending it
Taraka's head transformed into a rock- cave
Providential wish!
Vallimalai bore Vishnu on penance
Deer-guised Lakshmi consorted Him to bear Valli
New-born Valli later found abandoned
'Vallikizhangu' burrow supporting the babe
Found and fostered the hill-king Nambi Valli
Sneaked out to Muruga everything sage Narada
Valli now grown beautifully
In proposal disguised Muruga
Played all tricks and gimmicks
Unaware of the divine being
Tender Valli hid herself in 'valliguhai', Tiruchendur
However helped Vinayaka His brother
And matched Valli with Muruga at Tiruthani
Desired Valli to settle in the rock-cave
Demon-Krauncha where concaved
Consented Muruga to Valli's wish
Spear-struck 'saravanapoikai'
The spring for Valli to relish
Enlightenment the divine proximity did pave
Thereon named as Poornagiri the rock-cave
Valliyur thence the name after Valli
She dwelt with Muruga gleefully
Bliss of love in predominance
Exempted can not be even the providence

Shiva 5- Akasalingam-Chidambaram
Times and times Thee Thyself depute Thy blissless vacuum
At times superbia when created inordent tantrum
Of ascetical pride of a conundrum
Did dissuade the conceited exhorting with Thy fulcrum
Simple mendicant simply handsome
Raptured everyone spacy awesome
Relinquished pride replenished a blossom
Penta-phased bliss Thy dance of macrocosm
O'Lord Thy chasis of cosmos when robed
Of tiger and deer and snake and moon adorned
And demon Muyalavan under Thy feet crushed
And Thee when danced was Pathanjali stirred
Desire irrepressible was granted the show replayed
Live for Vyagrapada alongwith again Thee danced
Rhythm of cosmos, energy created and destroyed
Elemental atoms cascading spacewise they enjoyed
And meaningful o'Lord of space
Thy dance..revelation of Thy grace
Creation, sustenance, dissolution in race
Thine concealment and bestowment after chase
Formed through a semi-form though to a human face
Hey Shiva, truism is Thee a lingam of space

Domestic Shades-12
Wishing My Grand-Daughter-
Appears like risen from your lotus-nascence
Aurora's auspice
Bearing a clement presence
Sprawling incessant fulgence
Traversing by a sunny cycle along the days
With ardent love for Mother Earth
Appears like risen from your lotus-nascence
Sacred Shiva's cherubic Bala
Grown into a damsel of Tripura
To vanquish Bandasura beateous Lalitha
In valorous eloquence to conjoin Shiva
Meenakshi leering fledging love-arrows
Appears like risen from your lotus-nascence
Verdant Lakshmi pining for Vishnu
Firm in the lord's heart be seated to accrue
Sought His espousal reflects you
O' grand-daughter your divine puissant power
How I wonder sans any difference
O'Miss.Grandeur
Of your persona verdure
A scholar, benefactor I discover
And I wish you be so for ever
With all the mercy of the Supreme-Power
Wish you life through to cherish and prosper

Devi Annapoorani
Franchised the godly three
The providential toy-factory
Plays ever through myths
Conceited high about their bureaucracy
Creating, protecting, recycling by their spirit alone
Brahma, Vishnu, Shiva thrashing
Power Goddess withdrew in anger
Goddess Shakti broke Her propriety
And power off; Toys of creation on cessation
Dark without Durga, Lakshmi, Saraswathi
Strength, food, knowledge became the absentees
Functionless gods triad agnised Shakti's supremity
Surrendered, thence food for soul to the triad
As well for the whole providential production
Kasi Lordess perpetually offering
Praise, salute Annapoorani
Annapoorani on shakti-peetah at Varanasi
Her clement poise of mercy
Ladling food -an endless potful majesty
Of soul and stomach who ever be hungry
Conceive of Annapoorani to hurry
Her eloquent smile to wipe out any worry

My God Is An Awesome God
My God is an awesome God
My God is an awesome God
My God is an awesome God
My God is an awesome God
And I have my eyes fixed on him today
While I am walking to school
Because God is coming towards me
To greet me
And there is something going on with my mind
But I don't know what my mind is trying to tell me
Or if God is coming to give me a message
Or to walk with me to school
And to make sure that I am safe while I walk to school
My God is an awesome God
My God is an awesome God
My God is an awesome God
My God is an awesome God
He forgives everyone that sins here at home
My God is an awesome God
My God is an awesome God
My God is an awesome God
My God is an awesome God
He lives inside of my heart everyday
Because I made room for God inside of my heart
My God is an awesome God
My God is an awesome God
My God is an awesome God
My God is an awesome God
He will let the sun shine here at home every single day
And I look forward to the sun every single day
My God is an awesome God
My God is an awesome God
My God is an awesome God
My God is an awesome God
Because he is the maker of heaven and earth

Those are the icy drizzles of mount Kailash
All the snowy flora-fragrance on earth
A mystery-blossom in silent hush of a swash

Supported bulbed to spread and blossom
Long leafy perinnial spiked only to accrue
Sacred chaplets penta-poly-petaled festive awesome

It’s All Relative
This life some say is all relative, effecting how they choose to live.
Times may change, this is true, but should it change me and you?
If indeed this life is relative for you, whom or what is it related to?
Not all, you can be assured, is approved or endorsed by The Lord.
Cultures do rise and cultures fall, all at the hands of The Lord of all.
Christ who created all, my friend, will be the same in the very end.
In these ever changing days, sure and unchanging are His ways.
Eternal laws aren’t compromised; by Him wickedness is despised.
Anything that is contrary to Him, could my friend, be laced with sin.
For Satan wraps sin in a disguise, making sin pleasing to our eyes.
But Believers have the mind of Christ, to point us all to Eternal Life.
Are you moved by things on earth, or by the spirit of your new birth?
A Christian’s life should be relevant, to The Spirit whom Christ sent.
For we are to become sanctified, to live our life for Christ who died,
This is to live life as a sacrifice, reflecting the ways of Jesus Christ.
While we live our life down here, we should live it in reverent fear.
All our ways should be relative, to Him who died so we could live.
Living our life for Jesus Christ, recalling He paid the ultimate price.
And knowing that it was related to, His Father’s will for me and you.
And everything is related friend, to where in Eternity you shall end.
Classical philosophical theism maintained the ontological distinction between God and creative world that is necessary for any genuine theism by conceiving them to be of different substances, with particular attributes predicated of each.

The only theism worthy of our respect believes in God not because of the way the world is made but in spite of that. The only theism that is no less profound than the Buddha's atheism is that represented in the Bible by Job and Jeremiah.

Isms, Isms, Isms
thank god poetry has inched its way
into the hearts of the common man again
let's not make its journey there too laborious
let's write poems for the common man
like Blake, like Wordsworth, like Neruda
poems that sing and dance as they make their
way out to the the sea of humanity
poems of the Creator's brush that paint an
enchanting innocent world to be unravelled
as they make their way into the repository of human knowledge
let's make it all that simple, like making tea
when all we have to ask is whether it should
be sweet or plain yet are sure it will be fully savoured
let's write poem with the common men's words
so that it can be embraced without apprehension
let's not extort an art of its life and gentility so that
they are drowned in a sea of isms, isms, isms

Happy Easter
Who wants to be a rooster,
Crowing before dawn everyday.
Who wants to be that rooster?
Who wants to be that rooster?
Who wants to be a rooster,
Crowing before dawn everyday.
Who wants to be that rooster?
Who wants to be that rooster?
To strut and cluck for someone sleeping,
To get up.
And do that if programmed before the dawn shows up.
And if that rooster gets into a rut...
Who will then do the clucking?
Or wake up,
To collect the eggs!
Who wants to be a rooster,

'Happy Easter'
~Do you notice anything different about those eggs? ~
'Yeah!
They are colored.
Why? '
~They are for the Easter Egg Hunt.
Put them back.~
'Oh!

I thought I heard a rooster crow.'

Lord Of Tirunelveli
Sing Him praises
So does He bless us
Up from Kailas
Shiva here with spouse
Twin templed city
Wafting energy of Almighty
Tirunelveli a place of piety
Bearing a puranic antiquity
Vedabhatta a staunch devotee
Commanded by Shiva his beloved deity
Stayed in Thaamiraparani's tranquility
With his daily poojas on duty
Fate, in short struck famine
Poor devotee fell on beggary line
Yet everything per wish divine
For Vedabhatta only a good sign
Struggling though a lot
With prayers in heart
Vedabhatta very much devout
Begged for paddy regret without
So such sun-dried a morn the paddy
Bathed after in the river speedy
Prayed well for rains then needy
Surprise, rained atonce much a remedy
Mulled over the drying paddy
Hastened to check if hardy
Blessed, found he there unwet paddy
Realised the holy mercy of Shiva dandy
That supreme power alone
Hedged the paddy zone
Then since came to be known
Tirunelveli(sacred-hedged-paddy) well known
Swayambulinga, self-manifested in bamboo grove
To that Venuvaneshwar whom people drove
Agasthya and Rama that once did adore
Now named Nellaiappar; Resonable lore
Temples of Nellaiappar and Kaanthimathi
In the precincts with exquisite beauty
Sprawling magnificent sculptural artistry
Add elegance to Nellai i.e Tirunelveli
Copper-hall(Thaamira sabha) of dance
On the day of Arudra, star of Betelgeuse
As Lord Nataraja dances
Holds me closer to the divine grace
One among the many in peace
Folks, join in here for His holy brace

Sometimes In August
Cool, I mean cool as ever.
Anticipating these confrontations could end and bring abruptly the spark envisaged.
Dreams painted and hopes built, gladly chanting with sacred verves and voicing out in-depthly my voluminous ideas.
Sometimes in August, when plans discriminately fight one another with the aim of being supreme.
Hot, I mean hot to be exact.
If the heart beats to render courage to time, then hopes build up to defy fate.
Sometimes in August, our hopes fade, new consignments are met but proposed interrogationz would ever linger on my brains as always.
Sometimes in August.

i walk the ghats with names of gods

sadhus put thick white powder on my forehead
three lines to denote the shiva sect

not to walk inside the sacred ring

Bakula
O'Bakula, Bakula
Tell me
Your secrecy why sri Krishna
His Bansuri played under your canopy
Whilst you shedding your drizzles
Gathered the cows in gentle breeze
Tell me
St.Sambandar why under your shade
To marry assured Sangili Nachiar
Whilst you murmuring in gentle sway
Played concealed Shiva in your shadiness
Tell me
Temple lords all choose why you
In tranquility seated by your side
Tri-faceted turned why even Lord Muruga
At Elangi in your courtship importunate
Tell me
Your medicament exercised why to luxuriate
Usage of barks, flowers, fruits all yours why
Prized ethereal your gardenia why
Blossoms yours laced into laurels why
O'Bakula, Bakula
Look, handful mine your aromatic blossoms
To open up here truth of your heavenliness
Sunny-tiny, their celestiality wafting fragrance
Speaketh of trees five of providence
'Sandhanam, Mandharam, Karpagam, Parijatham
With Devatharu their evil fate suffered
Be out of demonism sought they to Shiva
Blessed then into one Bakula tree all five
Up His words seated at Thiruvotriyur
Shiva in shadiness beneath the Bakula tree'
O'Bakula, Bakula
Firmament so is your mother factual

Kaumaram-1
Thiruparankundram-
First of the six special abodes of Lord Murugan
Thou art crowned atop
In furtherance and furtherance
Incaved and incaved in rocky hearts concave
Mellowed in truthful immensities
Reigning aglow in triumphant intensities
Familial celestials juxtaposing in awe
Wondrous that rock in secrecy of Shiva
Emitting blessing blazes on Thou penance
Blessed Thine spear readied to battle..
Glorious Thine victory broke apart Padmasura
Causal to consort with Amrithavalli alias Devasena
In all cheers and jamboree 'Vel Vel Vetri Vel'
