Jesudason Atputharajah Poem
Oh! how I like to be a bird,
It has no worries or cares,
It has the freedom to move about at its whims and fancies,
It can stop and fly at its own will,
It can fly around the places it likes,
It can sit on the branch of a tree ,
And go on pecking,
It can run after its mates,
Fondle them and caress them,
Making sweet noises and screams,
It can join a vast number of its kind
And fly to long distances,
From one end of the globe to another,
It's life is one of everlasting joy.

Jesudason Atputharajah Poem
She switches the TV off,
Gets up and makes,
Her last visit to her kitchen,
Washes the remaining crockeries ,
Leaves them in their places ,
She sets the cell phone in the charger,
Checks the front door secure,
Puts off the lights,
Reaches her bed,
Spreads her bed sheet neatly,
With the comforter,
In the right position,
She kneels to say her prayers,
And lies down to sleep.

Jesudason Atputharajah Poem
My mind wanders here and there,
It has no bounds or limitations,
It keeps on thinking,
Various thoughts,
Sometimes ridiculous and at times,
Crazy and idiotic,
It quells my sleep,
And bothers my peace,
I seek solace in prayer and meditation,
Which gives me temporary ease;
The erratic thoughts come back,
To me, with incessant worries,
Which sap my energies,
And keep me hankering for serenity.

Jesudason Atputharajah Poem
Miles to Go.
Lord I have miles to go,
To complete the tasks assigned by you,
Life's pathways have ups and downs,
There are many hurdles on the way,
I cannot realize my goals,
I cannot fulfill them cheerfully,
One problem leads to another,
And keeps me continually,
Harassed and troubled,
Let me run my course with even joy,
To defeat the wiles of Satan,
And closely walk with thee to heaven.
