அம்மா

புரண்டு படுத்தால்

நாம் இறந்துவிடுவோமோ என்று

கருவில் இருந்த நமக்காக

தூக்கத்தை கூட தொலைத்து விட்டு

இரவில் விழித்திருந்த சூரியன்" அம்மா "

வேட்டை

 

ஆளின்றி அம்பின்றி

ஆளின்றி அரவமின்றி

ரணமாக்கும்

காதல் வேட்டை..!

 

வேடனே இரையாகும்

வேட்டை...! 

முதல் கவிதை

கவிதை எழுத முயற்சித்தேன்
பல வார்த்தைகள் கிடைத்தும்
மனதில் ஒரு தயக்கம்!

எதை பற்றி எழுதுவது,

நட்பு,காதல்,இயற்கை என மாறி மாறி
மனம் குழம்பிக்கொண்டிருக்க,
பேனா மையில் ஈரம் காய்ந்தது
வார்த்தை வரவில்லை!

சில நேர நிசப்தம்,இறுதியில்
என் கை எதையோ எழுதத்தொடங்கியது!
பின்னர் பார்த்தேன் கண்களில் ஈரம்,
அந்த வார்த்தை அம்மா!!!!

கவிதை

"நட்பு"....

தீயினால் உருகினாலும்

ஒளி தரும்
மெழுகை போன்றது "நட்பு"....

நகர வாழ்க்கை.

சீரான பாதை
கரடுமுரடான பயணம்
நகர வாழ்க்கை.

எத்திசையும் இனிமையே 

பசுவின் காலடியின்
பசுக் கன்று முட்டி முட்டி மகிழும்

காலடிக் குழிகளில்
மரக் கன்று காற்றில் ஆடி ஆடி சிரிக்கும்

நட்டுப் பாருங்கள்
நான் சொல்வது விளங்கும்

நாலா புறமும்
நல்லதே தெரியும் .

The Boy & the Apple Tree

The Boy & the pple Tree

A long time ago, there was a huge apple tree. A little boy loved to come and play around it everyday. He climbed to the treetop, ate the apples, took a nap under the shadow…he loved the tree and the tree loved to play with him. Time went by…the little boy had grown up and he no longer played around the tree every day.

One day, the boy came back to the tree and he looked sad. "Come and play with me” the tree asked the boy. "I am no longer a kid, I do not play around trees any more” the boy replied.

“I want toys. I need money to buy them.” “Sorry, but I do not have money… but you can pick all my apples and sell them. So, you will have money.” The boy was so excited. He grabbed all the apples on the tree and left happily. The boy never came back after he picked the apples. The tree was sad.

One day, the boy who now turned into a man returned and the tree was excited “Come and play with me” the tree said. “I do not have time to play. I have to work for my family. We need a house for shelter. Can you help me?” “ Sorry, but I do not have any house. But you can chop off my branches to build your house.” So the man cut all the branches of the tree and left happily. The tree was glad to see him happy but the man never came back since then. The tree was again lonely and sad.

One hot summer day, the man returned and the tree was delighted. "Come and play with me!” the tree said. “I am getting old. I want to go sailing to relax myself. Can you give me a boat?” said the man. "Use my trunk to build your boat. You can sail far away and be happy.” So the man cut the tree trunk to make a boat. He went sailing and never showed up for a long time.

Finally, the man returned after many years. "Sorry, my boy. But I do not have anything for you anymore. No more apples for you …” the tree said. "No problem, I do not have any teeth to bite" the man replied. "No more trunk for you to climb on” “I am too old for that now” the man said. "I really cannot give you anything... the only thing left is my dying roots” the tree said with tears. "I do not need much now, just a place to rest. I am tired after all these years” the man replied. "Good! Old tree roots are the best place to lean on and rest, Come, come sit down with me and rest.” The man sat down and the tree was glad and smiled with tears…This is a story of everyone.
The tree is like our parents

When we were young, we loved to play with our Mum and Dad...

When we grow up, we leave them…only come to them when we need something or when we are in trouble.

No matter what,
parents will always be there and
give everything they could
just to make you happy.

Pandith Amaradeva

Pandit Amaradeva's contribution to the music scene in Sri Lanka is more than a period of five decades has been an incomparable one. His music has been the most influential force in forging what could be called a truly Sri Lankan music with a unique national character and identity. At a time in the past when Sinhala music was at a downfall, his music provided the necessary direction and infused it with a fresh vigour. From that time onwards his musical creations have captured the hearts of several generations of music lovers, both young and old. Perhaps his greatness lies in his ability to create a range of emotions in the listener with that richly expressive voice of his which immediately 'transports' the listener to a world of his own. Pandit Amaradeva's repertoire of musical compositions displays an astonishing variety. This son of the soil is truly a gift of the gods to the nation and there would not be another in his category of music.

C. W. W. Kannangara

C. W. W. Kannangara

Crestoper William Wijeyekoon Kannangara (Sinhala:සි.ඩබ්ලිව්.ඩබ්ලිව්.කන්නන්ගර) (October 13, 1884 - September 23, 1969) was a Sri Lankan lawyer and politician. Rising up the ranks of Sri Lanka's movement for independence in the early part of the 20th century, he became the first Minister of Education in the State Council of Ceylon, and was instrumental in introducing extensive reforms to the country's education system that opened up education to children from all levels of society.

Born in rural town in Ambalangoda,southern Sri Lanka, his academic prowess enabled him to win a scholarship to Richmond College, Galle, a prestigious national school at the time. Initially working as a lawyer after leaving school, he entered politics as the movement for independence was gathering strength in Sri Lanka. Kannangara was first elected to the Ceylon Legislative Council in 1923 and then to the State Council. He also served as the President of the Ceylon National Congress.

As Minister of Education in the State Council, Kannangara introduced extensive reforms to the education system of Sri Lanka throughout the 1940s. They befitted thousands of underprivileged students in rural parts of the country by making education free for all students. He also began a central schools scheme, which established high quality secondary schools in rural areas of the country. Kannangara's significant achievements in areas of education have led him to being commonly referred to as the Father of Free Education in Sri Lanka.[

Dancers

 Chitrasena

What does forty years of dancing mean in Sri Lanka ? With a rich and variegated tradition stretching back to several hundreds, if not to over a two thousand years, with a tradition of such antiquity within which whole communities passed down an uncontaminated art from generation to generation, there must have lived many a master of the dance who could look back to his fortieth year of dancing with pride and retrace his rhythmic steps with immense satisfaction to the first day, when he stood at the dandikanda (barre) as a little lad and decided to be a Guru some day. To any dancer, forty years is a remarkable achievement, an occasion for celebration. To the dancer in Sri Lanka, it is even more - a test of exceptional loyalty and dedication to his art, a trial of unrelenting perseverance in the face of poverty and social scorn, a great triumph over the severest odds, a tremendous personal victory.

But with Chitrasena, forty years of dancing  is something positively and intensely more
significant, more important. Undoubtedly for him too, the completion of this long period carries a sense of personal achievement, bringing memories of struggle and triumph of quest and conquest of bitter and happy days, of lean and prosperous years.
But these achievements and trimphs are now no more individual and personal. Here, at the end of these forty years, Chitrasena emerges in our retrospective vision, an important artist in an important epoch - whose forty years are now become an indelible part of a country's cultural history; whose personal achievements are now, inseparable elements in a nation's aesthetic and emotional life. His trimphs have so much composed our present, that his failures too must now be reckoned as inalienable from our national destiny. If ever we as a nation, have the capacity to evaluate our own artists, we have now come to a stage,... or rather, Chitrasena has brought us to a stage, when we shall have to speak of his successes and defeats as ours

INDIA

INDIA

India  officially the Republic of India (Hindi: भारत गणराज्य, Bhārat Gaṇarājya),[c] is a country in South Asia. It is the seventh-largest country by geographical area, the second-most populous country with over 1.2 billion people, and the most populous democracy in the world. Bounded by the Indian Ocean on the south, the Arabian Sea on the south-west, and the Bay of Bengal on the south-east, it shares land borders with Pakistan to the west;[d] China, Nepal, and Bhutan to the north-east; and Burma and Bangladesh to the east. In the Indian Ocean, India is in the vicinity of Sri Lanka and the Maldives; in addition, India's Andaman and Nicobar Islands share a maritime border with Thailand and Indonesia.

Home to the ancient Indus Valley Civilisation and a region of historic trade routes and vast empires, the Indian subcontinent was identified with its commercial and cultural wealth for much of its long history.[8] Four of the world's major religions—Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism, and Sikhism—originated here, whereas Zoroastrianism, Christianity, and Islam arrived in the 1st millennium CE and also helped shape the region's diverse culture. Gradually annexed by and brought under the administration of the British East India Company from the early 18th century and administered directly by the United Kingdom from the mid-19th century, India became an independent nation in 1947 after a struggle for independence that was marked by non-violent resistance and led by Mahatma Gandhi.

The Indian economy is the world's tenth-largest by nominal GDP and third-largest by purchasing power parity (PPP). Following market-based economic reforms in 1991, India became one of the fastest-growing major economies; it is considered a newly industrialised country. However, it continues to face the challenges of poverty, illiteracy, corruption, and inadequate public healthcare. A nuclear weapons state and a regional power, it has the third-largest standing army in the world and ranks ninth in military expenditure among nations. India is a federal constitutional republic governed under a parliamentary system consisting of 28 states and 7 union territories. It is one of the five BRICS nations. India is a pluralistic, multilingual, and multiethnic society. It is also home to a diversity of wildlife in a variety of protected habitats.

என் உயிர் தோழியை தேடி ..!!!

அந்தி வெயிலின் குணம்
மழைச் சாரலின் சுகம்
இரண்டும் அவள்
மனதைச் சாரும்...!!

அவள் ,இவன் உயிரில்
பூத்த நடப்புச் செடி ...
பூத்த பூவை வேறொருவன்
பரித்த சோகம் ஏனடி ..!??

பிழையே செய்யாமல் இவனை
பிணை கைதியக்கினாள்
குணம் காணமல் அவனை
அவள் மனக்கைதியாக்கினாள் ..!!

நட்பிற்கும் தேவை
முகம் என உணரவைத்தாள்..
நடப்பும் உடல்
நிறம் நாடும் என அறியவைத்தாள்..
இவன் குணத்தை
பிணமாக்கி சிரித்து ரசித்தாள்..!!
தனிமையில் நிறுத்தி
இவன் கண்ணீரை போதையாக்கி ருசித்தாள்.!!

சொன்ன சொல்லு
என்ன ஆச்சு..!!?
கொண்ட சொந்தம்
எல்லாம் எங்கே போச்சு,,??

எனகென்று கவிதை
எழுதி காட்டினாள்- தண்ணீரில் ,
இன்றும் அதை நினைத்து
ஏங்கவிட்டாள் கண்ணீரில்..!!

என் உயிர் தோழியே -நடந்திடு
உன் புதிய நட்பின் கரம் கோர்த்து ,
இன்பமும்,அமைதியும் இணைத்து
என்றும் உன் சொந்தமாய் கொண்டிடு ..!!

பிழை செய்தது நானடி
சோகம் மட்டுமே இவன் சொந்தமடி
கானல் நீரில் மீன் தேடினேன்
காகித பூவில் தேன் நாடினேன்
தனிமையில் உறவாகி
கண்ணீரில் உரையாடுகிறேன் ..!!

உன் நட்பிற்கு கூட இவன்
தகுதி இல்லையோ
உனக்காக இவன் சிந்திய கண்ணீர்
உன் இதயம் தொடவில்லையோ ??!!

நன்றி தோழியே
சில நாட்கள் மட்டுமேனும்
நண்பனாய் இவனை கண்டத்திற்கு

மறக்கும் மனம் உனக்கு
அளித்த இறைவனிடம்
இவனுக்கு ஓர் வேண்டுகோள் ..
எதையும் மறவா
மனம் கொடுத்திடு-இவன்
மரணத்தை மட்டும்
உடனே அளித்திடு ...
அடுத்ததாக ஒரு ஜென்மம்
உண்டெனில்
அப்பொழுதாவது இவன்.......,,

நெஞ்சின் வலியோடு
என் உயிர் தோழியை தேடி
இவனது உயிர்

COMPUTER

COMPUTER

A computer is a programmable machine designed to automaticallycarryout  asequence of arithmetic or logical operations. The particular sequence of operations can be changed readily, allowing the computer to solve more than one kind of problem. An important class of computer operations on some computing platforms is the accepting of input from human operators and the output of results formatted for human consumption. The interface between the computer and the human operator is known as the user interface.

SUN

SUN


The Sun is the star at the center of the Solar System. It is almost perfectly spherical and consists of hot plasma interwoven with magnetic fields.[10][11] It has a diameter of about 1,392,000 km, about 109 times that of Earth, and its mass (about 2×1030 kilograms, 330,000 times that of Earth) accounts for about 99.86% of the total mass of the Solar System.[12] Chemically, about three quarters of the Sun's mass consists of hydrogen, while the rest is mostly helium. The remainder (1.69%, which nonetheless equals 5,628 times the mass of Earth) consists of heavier elements, including oxygen, carbon, neon and iron, among others.[13]
The Sun's stellar classification, based on spectral class, is G2V, and is informally designated as a yellow dwarf, because its visible radiation is most intense in the yellow-green portion of the spectrum and although its color is white, from the surface of the Earth it may appear yellow because of atmospheric scattering of blue light.[14][15] In the spectral class label, G2 indicates its surface temperature of approximately 5778 K (5505 °C), and V indicates that the Sun, like most stars, is a main-sequence star, and thus generates its energy by nuclear fusion of hydrogen nuclei into helium. In its core, the Sun fuses 620 million metric tons of hydrogen each second. Once regarded by astronomers as a small and relatively insignificant star, the Sun is now thought to be brighter than about 85% of the stars in the Milky Way galaxy, most of which are red dwarfs.[16][17] The absolute magnitude of the Sun is +4.83; however, as the star closest to Earth, the Sun is the brightest object in the sky with an apparent magnitude of −26.74.[18][19] The Sun's hot corona continuously expands in space creating the solar wind, a stream of charged particles that extends to the heliopause at roughly 100 astronomical units. The bubble in the interstellar medium formed by the solar wind, the heliosphere, is the largest continuous structure in the Solar System.[20][21]
The Sun is currently traveling through the Local Interstellar Cloud in the Local Bubble zone, within the inner rim of the Orion Arm of the Milky Way galaxy. Of the 50 nearest stellar systems within 17 light-years from Earth (the closest being a red dwarf named Proxima Centauri at approximately 4.2 light years away), the Sun ranks fourth in mass.[22] The Sun orbits the center of the Milky Way at a distance of approximately 24,000–26,000 light years from the galactic center, completing one clockwise orbit, as viewed from the galactic north pole, in about 225–250 million years. Since our galaxy is moving with respect to the cosmic microwave background radiation (CMB) in the direction of the constellation Hydra with a speed of 550 km/s, the Sun's resultant velocity with respect to the CMB is about 370 km/s in the direction of Crater or Leo.[23]
The mean distance of the Sun from the Earth is approximately 149.6 million kilometers (1 AU), though the distance varies as the Earth moves from perihelion in January to aphelion in July.[24] At this average distance, light travels from the Sun to Earth in about 8 minutes and 19 seconds. The energy of this sunlight supports almost all life on Earth by photosynthesis,[25] and drives Earth's climate and weather. The enormous effect of the Sun on the Earth has been recognized since prehistoric times, and the Sun has been regarded by some cultures as a deity. An accurate scientific understanding of the Sun developed slowly, and as recently as the 19th century prominent scientists had little knowledge of the Sun's physical composition and source of energy. This understanding is still developing; there are a number of present-day anomalies in the Sun's behavior that remain unexplained.
