Dr.V.K. Kanniappan Poems

The body of a senior citizen from whom the life is left,
who lived in one of that apartment flats is kept
in the freezer box and placed in the stilt car parking
for the final respects to be offered;
...

Many of us rear the cat;
Rearing the dog is for security;
Rearing the sheep and hen is for food;
Rearing the cow and buffalo is for milk;
...

The cloud absorbs the salty water from the ocean
..and makes it to pour as pure and sweet water as rain!

Likewise, It is a pleasurable duty of the people
...

Among whatever birth may be one who gets,
..there is no other birth so special and prestigious
like human birth to a person in this universe,
...

It is foolishness to be in glee that the lightning
..like youth will remain for ever and considering
that I will do the virtuous deeds in old age!
...

Don't go in the wicked ways and means in life
..so that the people who are at your safe custody
to grumble and lament with extreme agony!
...

Among the breakfast my wife made,
I have never liked anything better
than Ragi vermicelli ‘uppumaa’!
...

When I noticed the message of love
by one Dhinesh to one SaraNya scribbled
on the back of my front seat in the city bus,
...

Almost every ‘Deepavali’ gets itself
..widowed due to the fuddling of the rain!

Due to the extreme frolic of the rains,
...

Even if you do it for fun,
Don't belittle someone,
It hurts him;
...
