Good beauty lotus’s hundred flowers blossoming
Without life in whirl of

Twisting rolling
reduces breath b;ocking
irritating!
When you are nearsun rise is very beautiful
On touching youfine forest wave;
Your sweet tone joining melody tune of bird’s neck(throat)
Song of divine garden calls (secreting) body with shy
If you are not near,o beloved hemakshi
All world is non

This is not theist or
atheist ship(asthika nasthikaship);
Only ingratitude,not gentlemanship!

Affection separated
12:
Holding flowers,bending head
Standing o plant
Daily dust striken(attached)
Without child ‘boring’(bico)
has fallen spoiled your
bald base!
Jade only is muththaide
No ornament to base!
Whole head rich
Leg and hand poor!
Loved child’s company
Again your ornament
With muththaideship
Returns marriage.
Till that how ever nuch
Flower you wear-same:
Peculiar widow!
……………………..end……………………….
Affection separated
13:
Alone, alone, alone,
Ayyo I am alone!
O shiva,except you ,I won’s see anybody
To me everlasting friend!
Begeted died;
Brothers also died.
I have not yet got anybody equal minded friends.-
To hand held wife
Parents are there,mother house is there;
I am not everything.
To lovely child
pampering mother.
At last I am only
street dog!
Alone,alone,alone,
Ayyo I am alone!
O shiva,except you I won’t see anybody
To me eternal friend!
…………………………..end…………………….
Nirvana(liberation):
On flower petal like red honey drop
In bed is sleeping my
friend wife.
Bird of poet’s eye,straightening (stretching long) tongue
long
Licking swallowing
as though to make
liberation(nirvana)!

No beauty without you:
If you give all sweet;
Without you giving no
taste
If you are near all world
Milk,honey,sugar,jiggery.-
No beauty without you!
………………end…………………..
Nail wounded moon(nakhakshathendu):
New love of day and night
In enjoyment of evening
enjoyer
See there cloud’s thin screen border(saree)
Shying,face coverung,sky lass
Throws on cheeknail wounded moon
In bedroom shying yoga!
…………………………..end………………..
Love scorpion:
Love scorpion is sugar
Even if biten not bitter;
It’s hook is of affection’s
Even if pricked jaggery is sweet!

Poetry collection’anikethana’:
Flower Samadhi(trance) in flower garden:
Flower!flower! flower! Flower!
My death is in merudanda
Snake opening it’s coil
Love blossoming of joy’s pain
Blossoming in brain flower!
That this ,surrounding
everywhere
Flower!flower! flower! Flower!
Breath body all flower!
Where red everything is red?
Where everything is blue
Colourful this
kuvempu
Becoming himself seing vision(view)
As garden of flowers
Floating in colourful sea
Beyond death,drinking amrutha
Flower! Flower!flower! flower!
Flower! Flower!flower! flower!.........
