Starting with Waterworks

...he who is not productive in other fields can atleast produce literature.
Rabindranath Tagore

Waterworks
Visvanathan Balasaravanan



to
the deserted room of my home
(the factory of my creative works)



the age of innocence

I looked at you.
You too.
Our eyes smiled.
I gave my train;
you gave your car.
With time passing out,
together, we played.
Then, my finger
(locked into your bangle)
pulled it out.
The broken bangles
made your eyes brim...
You pushed me strongly,
against my chest by two inches
and ran crying,
"Mummy..."

- the most blessed are those who encounter the toughest times... because, God thought you are the strongest to handle these toughest...
