Dear Raju

This is one thing we seem to share. Except that I pick up poetry any time of the day or year to heal, inspire, energise & strengthen myself & show me a direction. Ruin’s Guest House is an all time guide. It also appears in my forthcoming book that I have just begun to write.

One thing that I wish I could emulate from you is the way of words. Yours make home in my heart & mind.

Keep flowing dear friend.

Hope to meet you sometime in this brief & uncertain life.

Love , always

I love the idea of poems as resolutions, and your selection is impeccable ❤️

A year or two ago, I shifted my new year to basant panchami, which heralds spring. I let go of resolutions and resorted to intentions, which is a kinder word full of less goals and more blank white spaces, foregrounds feeling over doing, and lets me go easy on myself because intentions have no bullseye :)
