Meena / Appu Clan


Meena watches us from miles
with Appu now by her side.
Through the sunlight streams her smile
to tell - here her soul resides.
And his own back Appu pats,
in the gruff voice joy he hides.
I guess he reads all our chats-
feel his scholarly eyes glide.
Yet we want to hear them more-
so we knock on heaven’s door.

Carpet


Here she lies in woolly laze
with the embroidery spread.
Here we soar in God’s embrace-
hope for wings with magic threads.
And her spell warmth emanates
in the winter nights of blur.
Royal aura nobly states
when honoured to walk on her.
But for joy and slumber deep-
what troubles under not sweep.
