Nandita Das Poet Verse

Power of Poetry

"Why do you write verses?" I'm asked.
Well, it's the verses that carry all the blessings 
and the burden of my thoughts, 
Lonely contemplations...
 ruminations, conversations...
Poignant memories,
Pensive reflections,  
raging storms, 
of despair and joy,
mind brimming with ocean of thoughts, flowing in verses...
Even when I'm drowning in a sea of emotions,
 these verses have carried me to the shores...

Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life."
