About me

A mother, wife and civil servant, a conscientious citizen and patriot ----- my abiding love for books has made me try my hand at writing poetry, none of which is anything but the strictly spontaneous outpouring of a mind that prizes truth and harmony, above all else.

then and now


We slept under the stars
Heads resting on pale pink roses
embroidered on white pillow cases
Dawn brought the raucous cries
of peacocks
A sweetness caressed the sleeping cheeks
the breeze was fragrant with gur laden tea
Spring announced itself by the warm chill
that made me squeeze my eyes harder
as if that which i could not see i would not feel
Now, the drone of the airconditioner
makes the days clones
that I cannot tell apart ---is it spring ?
