Bee the Flute
Bee is ringing in ears
Bee is drilling in shears
Be ing there in Tears
Be ing there for Years
Nothing until I was rooted
then she came in
I am fluted
Nada is routed
Ananda is unlimited
Kalakaattu Kavirayar

This poem is aimed at describing the forest life where the first bamboo was made the first flute by a bee. Until that moment, Nothing could enter the bamboo until it is rooted to earth. Bamboo was full of Nothingness, whereas when the bee drilled holes for it to live in, fresh air , wind blowed in. Then the bamboo was completely filled with that breeze and a melifluous music came out of that Bamboo as it became a flute. This form of nature is worshipped as Srividya, an act of nature as divinity.
