My Sri Lankan Sweet Pea
It’s now crystal clear… I need not be told
I am falling for a Sri Lankan sweet pea. I can’t hold
My feelings… she’s a darling dame, a beauty to behold
She’s got a guy, but to me she’s more than gains and gold

How I wish I could...

In innocence in churches or having Easter lunches.
God, welcomed so many home in an instant.

360 died in one day.
345  Christians are killed each month, but that's a deep secret and who cares?why don't we know?

In 2018, the number of the dead Christians is...

Premium Member Sri Lanka Blasts
Catholic churches were attacked in Sri Lanka
Many of our brothers and sisters were massacred 
By 
Fanaticism and ignorance
In 
The name of their God
But
When would we understand that there is only one God,
And that is the God of love,
That we all are his children,
All embraced by...

Happy To Live In Sri Lanka
Previously happy to live in Sri Lanka,
Doing well as mover of tanker,
Even as Sri Lankan roads got busier
And traffic of the rush hours not easier…

Then, he was fatter and franker
But living far political demand;
Also, after Riches did he hanker
But more after a chance to command…

So,...

Jeans of Sri Lanka
There’s a pair
Of jeans
That he can’t
Bring himself
To wash
Because the jeans
Still smell
Like Sri Lanka,
The sand
And the ocean,
The blood
And the sweat
And the tears,
The beauty
Of it all....

Sri Krishna Jananam

 

It was a dreadful night of tears

amidst He came as a child

in a desolate prison

with a promise to protect the good

and demolish the evil

 

Devaki’s sacred womb

Carried this invaluable gem,

The doors of the prison stood wide open

A divine light was there to...

Premium Member Ode To the Palmyrah Palm
O dear palmyrah,
Native of my mother land,
Known as Katpaha Viruksha,
Celestial tree of my birth place
 
Highly respected in northern Sri Lanka,
Your majestic height makes you,
Tall among the palms, able to
Withstand drought and grow strong!
 
Throughout the year,
You make us happy with your produce.
Thus, you boost...

Sir Aurobindo - National Internationalism
I
At home with Shankara & Ramanuja
As with Spinoza, Kant, and Buber
Seventy years on earth, to 1950, heir
To Thought of East, West, 'Father Nature'
Fought for Independent India, from 'Raj'
Taught we must do spiritual evolution
Community and nation are a good start
But dissolve they must, peace past nationalism
Separation...

What it 
Once was
Because his body
Is not

Once was.
