அக்னிக் குஞ்சு
தழலாய் தகதகக்கும்
வெளிச்சத்தை வாரித்தரும்
கண்களெல்லாம் உயிர்பெறும்
உயிர்களெல்லாம் உணர்வு பெறும் ....
அன்று அவன் அறிவித்த
அக்னிக் குஞ்சொன்று
இருதயத்தின் ஓரமாய்
சாம்பல் பூத்த நெருப்பாய்......
தென்றலாய் தீண்டிடுமோ ? பேரருள்
புயலாய் வந்து தாக்கிடுமோ ?
கவிதையாய் மருகி கிடப்பதும்
சீறிக் கிளம்புவதும் என் விதியோ ?
Are you linking "Swatharmaa" and the content of this poem ?? - If yes, I did not understand; if no, then linking this poem with your write up before this posting made it even difficult for dumb people like me to understand !! Maybe, your intention is to connect with higher plane that I am yet to reach. :)
ReplyDeleteதழலாய் தகதகக்கும் .... சாம்பல் பூத்த நெருப்பாய்... Isnt that contradicting ??
Secondly, what is the "அன்று அவன் அறிவித்த
அக்னிக் குஞ்சொன்று" ???
This poem is beyond my understanding.
Well Gowri....Here I am .. A meeting that I planned stands cancelled and in typical monday mood (??) I dont want to commit any thing today to substitute it...and use next few minutes to KILL time....!!
ReplyDeleteWell, there is a deep connection between the poem and swadharmaa. Let me elucidate it a little bit. when we are lucky enough to identify our swadharmaa & get into it, we dont have any complaints / cribbings ....!! Rather, we become more passionate and enjoy every moment.....The "fire ball" is just to depict our passion towards our swadharmaa...
On your second doubt about "sambal pootha neruppu"...is just the picturization of some thing with the potential which never had the full opportunity to flare up....The first para of the poem is about the benefits of FIRE that burns...AND I am saying in the third para, in my case it is yet to find expression (of course, I mean the Teaching Career)
"avan anRu aRiviththa agnikkunju"....who else but Bharathi...? Did not want to state it so obviously like a typical emotional dialogue in a patti mandapam....!! who else handled this terminology whom you and me know....?? Thappaa..anna ???
Well, I repeat....please re-read the poem. I remember you gave a raving feedback to ANNIYAM when you candidly accepted that you did not understand it in first instance....!! This one is bit more direct than the earlier ones....Just that it is so genuine as I wrote this poem at a moment when my passion was buring so ferociously...
Suchoo
