valentine day haikus..

Translation of Valentine day Haikus..

(These are the translated version of Tamil Haikus published in Tamil journal Ananda Vikatan on the eve of last year’s Valentine’s Day , 2010. With due courtesy and thanks to Ananda Vikatan and the author of these poems, this translated version is dedicated to the Face Book commune)

Sun shoots you throughout the day.

And telecast you in night as moon.


Dear-

I send this night as my letter..

Moon is my stamp!

These neat SMS messages are not like your slant hand writing..

Honey!- drop a letter please..

Parrots were teasing monkeys till you came..

After seeing you-

Monkeys started teasing

The parrots…

You call crows to get fed..

After eating what you gave-

Crows flew as parrots..

Since you love to play-

I have kept myself

Safe as a Toy!

What you and you will talk so long before that mirror?

We ate together like sweet last February..

I wander as a lone ant this Feb..

They told that you never spoke bad words..

I understand now why they were bad words..

Your word slips like a hand caught fish..

Some times it slips and mixes with the sea..

Some times it reaches my basket and dies..

Lovers day come in a month having weak life-

But the day infuses each second a strong life!

Love is getting stars in the trap laid on ponds..

Love is waking all night to stop alarm in the morn..

Love is gathering tons of words in absence and loosing all speech when meeting..

Love is stretching letters full of questions knowing no answer..

Love is still feeling the first scar even while put on wheel chairs at old age..

All words are exhausted.

Tell me the pattern of your smile..

I have to write poems!

God asked me the meaning of Love..

I showed me..

He asked for the reason..

I showed You..

Sending 20 SMS per minute was a feat..

When I told that you winked thirty times..

The Feat got Defeated.

How good it would have been if I knew how to change my love as a child or toy?

You might be playing with it..

How good it would have been if I knew how to change my waiting as a train or bus?

You might be boarding in it..

How good it would have been if I knew how to change my concern as a ring r watch?

You might be wearing it..

How good it would have been if I knew how to change my letter as an offer of appt?

You might be accepting it..

How good it would have been if I knew how to change my soul or egg cake?

You would have eaten if you liked or thrown out if you did’nt..
