M V VENKATARAMAN
O- My dear asianamericanpoetry
I was filled with deepest worry
As without you, life, I did carry
But, I could not acquire holy merry
Where have you been so long?
Without you, how can I prolong?
I felt very weak and never strong
I could not at all offer a song
Whenever I tried to reach your site
I could not approach losing delight
I was kept in the dark with no light
To enter I aimed during day and night
My heart sadly wept with deluging tears
Have I lost it? gave me terrible fears
The shock of having lost canceled cheers
In joy and peace happened the worst arrears
Thousand times I tried to somehow enter
But, only rejections, I could encounter
Sorrow attacked me like a cruel hunter
Joy left speedily like an Olympic sprinter
I blamed myself for possible fault
And so my entry the site did halt
This gave my mind a serious jolt
It shocked my heart like 1000 Volt
I cried to my wife for this loss
In my bed I did turn and toss
I told her how happy I was!
To help I begged to God-Boss
My soul could not bear the burden
As the vanishing was really sudden
Poems were growing in the site-garden
Almost all poems were well-done
Every day an attempt will be made
Hoping the site will provide shade
How sorrowful I was my dear comrade!
My confused heart, sadness did pervade
Today also I tearfully opened with trust
O- God- Today I passed in the test
I will participate in the poetic contest
Surely I will try to do my level best
