Hi Dr. Mehta, Great usage of alliteration in this piece and your words express a deep truth. I want to thank you for reading my posting, but I'm going around in circles. I just joined this site and it's not easy to navigate. Can you please help?

Namaste Dr. Ramji, This is an Alliterated Haiku which deserves a top notch placement. I have been reading all the winning Haikus! I find the interpretation of structure has been democratised. Thanks for sharing
