Titles of Dr. Abraham Karickam (No:2 Love Poems)

"These poems of Abraham Karickam are in the great tradition of devotional poems, whether in the East or in the West. To Abraham God is not a category or an Idea. God is a living person both loving and lovable, a person with whom one can forge  friendship both human and divine, a rise and fall, growth and decline. It can rejuvenate, it can resuscitate. In love relations there are stages of frustration, and despondency and also stages of exultation and ecstasy. This moment one is at the summit of a union with the Lord, the next moment is in the abyss of alienation. 

The different mental states created by love in the poet are given powerful expressions in these poems. As it is, the love between mankind and God and it's ways are strange and wonderous.

............To me these poems have been a mine of delight.  I recommend them to my friends with all my heart. Their shortcomings pale into insignificance in the lustre of their intensity and sincerity. I wish Abraham the best; may he fully blossom in the years to come. May these poems find favor with you".

              Dr K. M Tharakan (Former President of Kerala Sahitya Academy)

It is a collection of 60 love poems written on various occasions. Most of these were written in Taize Community, France during different visits.

                        The first edition  was released by Dr. Alexander Marthoma Valiya Metropolitian by giving the first copy to Dr. K M Tharakan at a function held in Mar Thoma College Thiruvalla.

Love poems of Dr. Karickam No. 2 : MY LOVE

MY LOVE

Whoever said that woman is frail

Knows not nature I can bet;

Like the pole star she can stay

In steadfast love till eternity.

Like the fountain fresh and sweet

She can pour out blessed streams;

Unfathomable depths I know

Beyond the measure of human scales.

Like the Himalayas she can rest

Resisting all temptations ever;

Patient as the mother Earth

Tiding over the whips of time.

If ever you dare prove this wrong

Come with me and see my love;

See my soul in her eyes

And pronounce the judgment as you please.

Love Poems of Dr Abraham Karickam No. 1: FOR THE CONTACT

FOR THE CONTACT

As a tree with roots above

And branches down and all around,

Ever I long to reside in Thee

For sap in veins for me to thrive.

My cells dry up and cry for help

As they fail to catch contact;

With withering parts and dying leaves

Can I face the gathering storm?

It is after ages of penance

And passion such that never recedes,

That I got a chance to sprout

And grow in earnest hope and joy.

Numerous of my kin around

Run and die in scorching heat;

Had I shady bowers over,

They could relax and go in peace.

When deserts spread and oceans dry

And the Center sways in atomic tremor;

Can I hope to catch a  glimmer?                                                                              
Of that face I longed to see?

                                          Abraham Karickam

മോഹം

                                         
ഒരു വട്ടം കൂടി എന്‍ ഓര്‍മ്മകള്‍ മേയുന്ന തിരുമുറ്റത്തെത്തുവാന്‍ മോഹം 

തിരുമുറ്റത്തൊരു കോണില്‍ നില്‍ക്കുന്നോരാ നെല്ലി മരം ഒന്നുലുത്തുവാന്‍ മോഹം

അടരുന്ന കായ് മണികള്‍ പൊഴിയുമ്പോള്‍

ചെന്നെടുത്തു അതിലൊന്ന് തിന്നുവാന്‍ മോഹം

സുഖമെഴും കയ്പും പുളിപ്പും മധുരവും

നുകരുവാന്‍ ഇപ്പോഴും മോഹം

തൊടിയിലെ കിണര്‍ വെള്ളം കോരിക്കുടിച്ച്

എന്തു മധുരം എന്നോതുവാന്‍ മോഹം 

ഒരു വട്ടം കൂടി ആ പുഴയുടെ തീരത്തു വെറുതെ ഇരിയ്ക്കുവാന്‍ മോഹം 

വെറുതെ ഇരുന്നൊരു കുയിലിന്റെ പാട്ടു കേട്ട്

എതിര്‍ പാട്ടു പാടുവാന്‍ മോഹം 

അതു കേള്‍ക്കേ ഉച്ചത്തില്‍ കൂകും കുയിലിന്റെ

ശ്രുതി പിന്‍തുടരുവാന്‍ മോഹം

ഒടുവില്‍ പിണങ്ങി പറന്നു പോം പക്ഷിയോട്

അരുതേ എന്നോതുവാന്‍ മോഹം

വെറുതേ ഈ മോഹങ്ങള്‍ എന്നറിയുമ്പോഴും

വെറുതേ മോഹിക്കുവാന്‍ മോഹം

വെറുതേ ഈ മോഹങ്ങള്‍ എന്നറിയുമ്പോഴും

വെറുതേ മോഹിക്കുവാന്‍ മോഹം

                                                             ഓ. എന്. വി
