Rm. Shanmugam Chettiar Poems

Every action has an equal
And opposite reaction
Every object throws its shadow
To the light it receives.
...

An enemy though he is,
Don't hate him.
It might affect your judgment.
A partner though he is,
...

St. Valmihi, who wrote Ramayana,
The epic, had a past as a robber.
St. Augustine, called Doctor of Churches
Had a past as being a hedonist.
...

A tourist visits places,
Enjoys and experiences
With all the comforts ensured.
He is passive in his pursuit.
...

The unrequited love is a cause
Of concern that cripples everyone.
It includes the love got less than one given
The love got below one's expectation
...

Some are beaten to death in public places.
Some are robbed at gun point in public places.
Women are stalked, assaulted and murdered.
Murder is the outcome of revenge or rage.
...

Apology asked, one dresses one's quilt.
Apology taken, one dresses one's bruise.
It is a repairing mechanism,
Sincerity is the skill needed for it.
...

The autonomic nerves system runs
The automatic functions of organs.
Respiration process has an effect on these.
We can impact it involuntary though.
...

Health cannot be bought with money
Death God cannot be fought with money.
Here lies solace to all people.
Here lies warning to all people
...

Women are sounder than lass in appeal.
A middle aged woman is no longer
Kitchen bound and children bound.
She stays put not when the marriage works not.
...
