The Avatar

The Avatar :
It is an embodiment  to give a concrete or visible form to someone or something. I tried my hand in combination of Loop poetry and Haiku's. I chose the theme "Avatar" ( "Avadaram" in Tamil ) .

Spirituality
Freedom of the Physical Self
An Avatar is born


An Avatar is born
With bad memories washed away
He Chose to do good


He Chose to do good
For what he is born today
Called this change "Avatar"
