Everyone has their way of living - some live for their parents, some live under the influence of parents, some live with the flow as life takes them, some live for their partners, some live for the food, some live for their kids, some for their love, some take decisions because of the love they received from other… of all these, each individual had /must dream of having a poetic life… 

Whatever we think isn't true, but we really wanted to be true- was said by a wise person… 

Poetic life ain't something that is portrayed in Manirathnam movies, it all happens in our life… Every individual's life... The thing is we don't see to it or we fail to feel so… 

From getting the new bike which we inspired from our favorite Cricket stars in that ad… 

Calling our loved ones after a long tiresome day… hearing a hello from them and the long conversation ends with a take care and good night…

Holding on to a beer at weekends, stretching our legs in the cushion, turning on to your tv on a Sunday evening… 

Having a jog early in the morning, getting a chill breeze which softly slaps at our sweat-filled cheeks… and witnessing the sun which wakes up for routine…

Snoozing the alarm for 10 more minutes, which will go on for 30 more minutes. And we follow knowingly that we will never wake up after 10 minutes of first alarm… 

To have a bonfire or sit out at the terrace, hanging out all night with friends or family… 

Suddenly facing the biggest issues in life, (nan vaatuku sivan neh nu dana iruken moment ) and having shoulders to pour it out, sometimes we mature to face it alone without sharing it… 

Earing the first paycheque and spending it for the costlier thing we wanted… 

Struggling to open our mouth to propose to the girl, and breaking the ice when she smiles back at us, and again we doubt whether it was a yes or not…

These are all poetic, man… Literature in any language describes a casual event that happens in the common man's life, unfortunately, we tend to think all the poems are for a king or wealthy people, or some devadoss… Actually, the little things which mean something to us, the craziness which we do without our conscious, effort which we take for reaching our goals, the morning kiss with a cup of coffee, a good morning and a good night from a special one… are all a tiny phrases of a poetic life…
