Winter Storm - A Sonnet
By Joji Varghese Kuncheria


The tropical winter in Munnar hills,  
Brings in due and mild mist every morning,
Brings out the coveted taste within us,  
And thick fog covers us in the evening. 

Playing a hideous game this season,  
The sun shows up bright and strong sparingly,  
Bringing the humid air this mild season, 
Helping us to sprout all over lushly. 

We bring that rich aroma they covet,  
The people love the taste of Munnar tea, 
And where we flourish richly they visit,
We're part of their life; they come to sight-see.

We rejuvenate their spirits high up;
We are the thunder storm in their tea cup.

This Sonnet by Joji Varghese Kuncheria is from the Anthology "Winter Melodies" published at Amazon.

Ebook: ISBN- 10 / 1980654646 Paperback: ISBN- 13 / 1980654643 There is a Sore Evil By Varghese Kuncheria There is a sore evil soaring under the sun,  The evil of inequality among people and nations,  The profit of the earth is meant for all,  But the riches are kept by a handful. The nature of man is naturally selfish,  And the poor are oppressed and reproached,  Lay aside all malice; let no guile be our guide,  Let love and brotherhood be part of our DNA! To oppress the poor is to reproach humanity,  There is a gap that becomes wider day by day,  The gulf between the haves and the have nots. Refuse to hide your wealth in tax havens. Pay your taxes and make eternal savings,  That moths do not eat or perish by evil travail,  Honour all men, let not your heart be haughty Have pity on the needy, and honour your Maker. ​The struggle is the same; the UN has tried its best, So are the...

  My First Love   By Joji Varghese Kuncheria  Who drives me towards my destiny? Who makes my life worth a living one? Neither riches or desires unending, Nor is it power or worldly pleasures, It's You, my Love, only my first love, Who leads me on and on to the goal. My first love will never ever change, To you I owe my life, my whole being, I'm lost and shattered now without you, My life sways shaky like a pendulum, Swinging back and forth under gravity, The spirit that surged me on is gone. Back to you is not an easy coming, Filthy as I am, forlorn and forsaken, I long to be in your omniscient fold, To be immersed in your eternal love, Lead me to the fountain of my life Of unending pleasures worth living. You are only a call away to my beckon, With wide open arms ready to embrace, How I long to be secure in your arms! To be imbued in your love and be safe, I cry out to you, the elixir of my Love, Lead...
