Do you look at the beautiful morning/evening sky?
My good friend Beeshman who lives at Bahri Beautiful Country, a gated community at the base of Kodaikanal sent me a set of brilliant pictures and requested me to write a poem. Here it is as a personalisation of sun’s moods titled “painted feelings”.
Have a lovely day.

Painting with words (poetry) & pictures (posters )
mask the net
Web united us, fostering wonderful bonds. Automobiles, aeroplanes shortened distances, web zeroed it. Then came social network. Life changed. Conversations acrimonious, misinformation spread, fakes blurring reality. What we do? My creative as #poem “mask the net”.
Cow-rageous
Distressed at the ugly twist of using surnames for shaming, I just could not fathom the new lows we stoop into. Felt very suffocated, but I did not want to be frustrated. To get over the feeling of sick, I wrote a limerick! “Cow-rageous” it is, what I think we should be all now.
(Note : koo is the new Desi Twitter)
Deranged
In olden times, you could be arrested if you are in the company of shady characters. In the era of digital, it is black and white characters that can get you into trouble. A young lady seen in the company of a document lands her in jail on Valentine’s day. Strange times we live in, distressing it is, as a #poem “Deranged”.
unbroken
In a world without borders, unified by a platform, wars happen. A war in the open, now to subdue the unbroken. A creative on #FarmersProtest where four young women’s tweets are seen as a national affront. In the world of digital, where is the border?
Beyond the cloud, into heaven
How do I feel with the rapidly changing times? Distressed and tired, I think. A creative take on ‘earlier and now’ as a poem titled “Beyond the cloud, into heaven”.
280 army
Everything is #digital today. Today’s war is digital too, fought in an open platform, in the cloud, with an army of 280 characters. A creative on the Twitterati wars as “280 army”.
Observations
“Why do you run round and round?
Why do you pound just to get browned?
Let me tell you, it is more than a run,
it is the sheer pleasure of observation.”
Bangalore Stadium Run 2021 captured in this creative “Observations ”. I bet you can spot some of the runners in this poem.
Gold
To a special cyclist who became SR in life (He crossed 200, 300, 400 and now 600 months). Enjoy the ride of life Mohan Subramanyam.

For my non-cycling friends:
Super Randonneur is a title given by Club Audax Parisien when a person has complete four brevets of distances 200km, 300km, 400km and 600km in a cycling year.
my dear Gaia
Today morning was a blessing, greeted by a brilliance of pink and golden in the sky, an ephemeral moment that lasted just a few minutes. The right brain swathed by the glory tickled the left to string words into a poetic garland as an offering to celebrate a beautiful day. Here it is as “my dear Gaia”.
Sanghamitra Guha Also saw your post pictures of the ‘beautfiul today’. Hope this poem captures a bit of that. Enjoy!
