Dear Valsa, it's such a great pleasure reading your wise and uplifting comments. Yes, my birthplace Kolkata is a great city, vibrant with cultural activities. Rabindranath Tagore's songs and writings had a huge impact on me from childhood. In this poem, the picture which appeared in my mind, is Benares, which I haven't visited, but the scene of boats in the Ganges, and the atmosphere of chanting hymns I often ponder about. Thank you for your wonderfully written appreciative comment. This is the blessing I mostly value being a member of this gifted community. Love and best wishes

Dear Paula, Thank you so much. Really appreciate your supportive comment. Best wishes ~

True Seeker, feel nostalgic at times. I wish I could read Sanskrit well, and read Kalidasa. My mother picked my name from one of his epics. Reading Kabir would be great too! Thank you for reading my poem, really appreciate your encouraging comment.

Thank you so much, Bill, my friend from Texas. I feel really proud of my heritage, which often gets expressed in my writings. Really appreciate your comment.
