Winter
To winter is to enter into a spirit
Of illumed triumph of Karthikeya
Portending the end of a season's demonic beat
While waken Devas of curving ozonic vista
Witness by Vishnu's Ekadasi Muran's devilish defeat
On which Vaikuntam throngs open with praises
That people fast to realise a fact
That Andal practised through her verses
With the Lord with devout fervour to unite
Holy abluted in the wintry aurora hours
Soul-strung garlands adorning the Lord bespoken elite
Winter welcomes warm and never freezes
Winter is warm yet freezes astounded
Whilst coupled to Thiruvadirai the night-long moon
Verity of unending space unveiled
When Lord Shiva danced to our fortune
Thence that Winter has been laureled
Of festivities artistically flourishing
Cymbals of Bhajans on streets loaded
Winter bears sacred springs outpouring
Everyone soused soulfully ere wakes the sun clouded
Afresh, anew like the new crops growing
Winter pleads to shrivel our sins heaped
Then of good consequence of good karma on harvesting
