Na. Muthukumar uses the image of a butterfly to explore life’s unpredictability. ‘To an ant floating helplessly in water, a fallen leaf became a saving boat,’ the wordsmith writes, blending hope and struggle into a single line. The poet’s words mirror the constant shift between joy and sorrow, offering a poignant reflection on existence.
Para Para Para Para ParaFluttering, fluttering, fluttering…
PattampoochiA butterfly.
Thoda Thoda Thoda ThodaAs I touch it softly,
Pala Vannam AchuMulti-colored patterns emerge.
Idhu Oru Idhu Oru PuthuThis is a brand new,
KannammoochiGame of hide and seek.
Idhayaththil VanillaiThere’s no sky within my heart,
Adhu MarippochuIt’s all changed now.
