As a child of ten you lose your mother in a ghastly tragedy. You are under the care
of a single parent, who is as caring as he is strict, instills in you a tradition of value
filled education, which by the time you are young and ready to face the world
gives you a “paripakkuvata” (ripened wisdom) to straddle in two different worlds – the
material needs of the secular plus the innate nature of the spiritual – in consummate ease.
This then transforms to a flair of expressing yourself in Poetry; your angst, your
helplessness, your capacity to laugh off worries, be grateful to your beautiful wife & son
& the extended families, and yet retain that unflinching faith in Him to deliver you……
A glimpse from Baiyu’s book:
Forgive Us Mother, As Only You Can
We Did Nothing To Avenge Your Pain
Even As We Think We Are Ashamed
Oh What A Children To You We Have Been.
&
As I Idle My Time Wondering What To Do
I Put Down My Thoughts As Poets Would Do
I Then Feel A Happiness Beyond All Bounds
I Know If I Write, I will Not Be In Vain.
Read on for more such gems……
