Haiku - Betrayal

Water to quench thirst

Look! Mirage in the desert

Betrayal of Eyes 

-written in response to Haiku Heights

Poem for my Mother - Happy Mothers Day!

The above poem is written in Tamil for my lovely Mom. I am translating the same for all my friends who don't understand the language.

You were my first Kiss

You were my first Poem

I give my daughter now 

what you gave me once

Unconditional Love and affection

Mom, your everlasting love

is the light to my road 

I ask you inane questions

even today at this age

and ...

you still answer them 

clearing all my doubts 

showing where I went wrong

Is this one single day enough 

to write all about you ?
