A Word In Your Ear Poem by Ponniah Ganeshan

A Word In Your Ear



It is so painful
You have become so small, sir,
As if the vast ocean is reduced into a nutshell

You failed to raise your head
Up above the sky
Failed to look beneath
Earth,
There are how many stars
Shining beyond the sky
The earth embedded with gold and treasure
Yet you failed to speak about them

Where do you hide your heart
and come here
Go, run and bring the heart
and put it in its place

Look at the green grass and flowers
Blooming in the plaint
They smile in some rainy day
Not expecting anything in return.
Speak to the heart that weeps
When a man is murdered or killed
Not looking into his identities
Of any kind!

Lets open all our doors
Without confining to a corner
and let the rays of the sun
shine our entire soul for ever
