I wish I could live in 1980s & 90s
As a young teenager or a youngster
When Raja sir music was magical
When Chennai was in no mention
And Madras had it's own taste
When Rahman sir stringed songs of love
When Mobile phones were never born
When one landline call would be so special
While travelling would be memorable
When pollution was not in sight of dawn
While ice kollas from vendors was a bliss
When playing together in ground
After school time was a real fun
When the tension load of books was less
When watching movies in theatres was an excitement
When Marina beach was free of plastics
When selfie was not a trendsetter
While one group photo has so much to tell
When internet was just a booming love
When newspaper was valued so high
When letters even though one ,
would always be treasured
I envy those times even if technology
Wasn't improved people had more happiness
I wish I was there to see!!!!!

City- I hate that I love you
What am I doing in the mess? I'm not the person who would give into the seductive city's temptation. Those neon lights and skyscrapers scare me out of my wits. This earthen soul inside cowers under the roars of buses and lorries. The smoke and the aggression of their gears.
I look out for something home. Something I could cling onto. Place my heart safely in and guard it from the metro millennials.
But all I could see are gaudily coloured flats that twist and turn in infinite numbers, the winking traffic signal, crowded shops with plastic strewn all over, slush of the recent rain, mounds of garbage here and there.
If I were the city, I'm sure I would've choked and puked and perished sooner.
A threat of a terrible headache loomed over me that sunny afternoon I sat in the dusty bus. I tried hard to think of something else. About home. About Amma's food. About the comfort of my bed. Nothing helped.
Without my notice, the bus took off to the flyover. The elevation made me cringe, my nausea more triggered. I gasped for breath, reached out to the window. By the time, the bus was traversing on the highest level of the flyover.
My pupils dilated. The vision I saw of the same seductive city became clear. A panorama of the lamposts in dutiful order, the crisscrossing bridges and automobiles of audacious shades hit me hard. Besides these metal giants, I also beheld those scrambling hard from the margins of the city.
The sweet candy hawker was busy in conjuring his magic. The pookara akka's (florist sister) meticulous hands growing garlands from discrete flowers.
A ponch belly Muslim grandpa taking a good nap in his mobile cobbling shop. Photos of Kali and Meenakshi lined up in the array of palmist aunties on the platforms, ready to foresee other's futures. A 'kaiyendhi' bhavan with its aroma of hot idlis and sambar, enticing customers.
It changed me, these myriad mitochondrias of the city. After all, amidst the concrete mess, there's some canopy of hope and calm.
*Kali and Meenakshi are incarnations of mother goddess in Hindu mythology
*Kaiyendhi bhavan - mobile tiffin shops.
Kaiyendhi literally translates to holding with hands. (Tamil)
Basically a Chennai ponnu( a girl) & her love-hate relationship with her city

Happy Madras Day
Each and every one has their native by birth,
But when you start living in Madras,
It's become native for you until your death!
©inneremotions10 1The Land
I'm aware we have no Motherly connection
Still I long to be with you.
I know I was not brought here to stay,
Still it aches a little more when it's time to leave.
Is it because of those ancestoral roots?
Is it because of the life you gave ?
Is it because that you let me be ?
I know not.
I know not.
It took me ages to call you by your new name
It will take me another life to forget you,
May be that was a false statement.
Dear Madras or should I adress you as
Dear Chennai ?
You will forever be that land I wish
to draw my last breath In.

கூவம் அன்று.,
கயலின் அபிநயத்தில்..!
தினம் தோறும் ஓர் அரங்கேற்றம், 'தலக்கோலம்' முதல் 'நேப்பியர்' வரை...
இன்று..,
'நடனமும்' இல்லை 'நளினமும்' இல்லை
உயிரற்ற உடலானால்...!
ஒளியற்ற 'அகல்' ஆனால் தலக்கோல மங்கை...!
#மணிமேகலா(கடல்தேவதை)வின் மனம்
