There might be more to me that I haven't explored yet, but of what I know, here are the 10 poems that define me:

This is a useful roadmap for the wayfarer to learn more about you. In learning more about you, the poet can't help but learn more about poetry, for you have much to teach. Thank you for taking time to put together this list of your most significant poems - I look forward to reading them all. You may often be alone, but through your poetry, you have joined a community of sharing ideas, revelations, and encouragement ~ John

Though I haven't read all your poems yet, and though I only know you through your poems, I do believe this list is non-exhaustive. Wonderful to get your perspective on the poems I have read. Many that I have read, are brilliantly written. Introvert is not one of the descriptive words I would have used upon reading your work. Perhaps you are absorbed in a perpetual voyage or an unwritten story. Kudos, Aditi.
