DEDICATED TO THE GREAT MALAYALAM POET 'MAHAKAVI* P KUNHIRAMAN NAIR'. <br /> <br />My prostrations are unto thee, <br />Oh! pleasant mother earth, I leave thy inn- <br />Herewith I return my keys. <br />Thanks for all the dales and kindly lease. <br /> <br />My reflections are unto thee, <br />Dear mother earth, I am on my sojourn. <br />Herewith I leave behind my decades- <br />Missions and mansions. <br />Take care of the winds. <br /> <br />My heart is for thee, <br />Loving mother, I am closing the door. <br />Herewith I leave behind a cartload- <br />My memories and dreams. <br />Take care of the springs. <br /> <br />My prayful thoughts unto thee, <br />Oh good earth, I miss thee forever. <br />Herewith I return my season ticket- <br />Alight from my train. <br />Adieu for thy selfless love, <br />Thanks for all the pastures of life. <br />xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx <br /> <br />Mahakavi* - Means 'Great Poet' - a title usually given to outstanding poets.<br /><br />Ravi Panamanna<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/before-leaving-the-inn/
