THE Great God

Oh Great God dear!

you live in our hearts very near.

please bless us,teach us,

take care of us and guide us,

so that we do not go the wrong way,

and keep losing track of the good deeds everyday.

and, I pray that you will be there always

to show us the path of truthfulness always !

TSUNAMI

This was written when the tsunani hit the south Indian coast and Indonesia in December2004

Tsunami , Tsunami , Why did you come this way?

Was it that you wanted to punish us some day?

The devastation all around ,

has left us spell bound.

Let this be a blessing in disguise,

and lets take care that it does not occur twice.

Let us all lend a helping hand,

to rehabilitate the orphaned of our motherland.

Chitra Sundar.

world today

This is about politics and power.

How meaningless,unpurposeful

the world has become!

with no place for ethics and

discipline in anyone.

Mean and selfish ways

are manipulated everyday,

to keep oneself in power

come what may!

Let us not fall prey

to such unethical practices,

and pledge that we do not

get into the grip of such vices!

The lonely soldier

This is an expression of my feelings towards each and every Jawan who lays down his life for his country.

There stands the soldier keeping vigil,

Of our motherland always at peril.

Does he not have his own feeling?

To take care of his own well being?

He who stands guard leaving a family behind,

lets us live with a peaceful mind.

let us all salute this unsung hero of our country!

Who fights the enemy so gallantly!

Sweet childhood

As you grow up, you end up having more responsibilities.So, when you think back you just cannot stop feeling that you could have been a child forever. Not that you do not want to take up these responsibilities or that you do not wish to fulfil these duties, but that you sometimes wish you were totally free.

A small poem expressing the same is here.

Oh! so nice it is to be,

Born a child so carefree.

How sweetly the days go by , one wonders,

With no responsibility on the little shoulders.

Just jump ,skip,and keep going around,

With friends to play on the merry-go-round.

How I wish I could live those days once again dear!

With no pains ,no gains, whatsoever!
