Poem in Response

Having read “Portrait Of A Poet“, written by Yasmin, a friend and very talented writer hailing from Mumbai, India – wherein she conveys the depth and energy from which her poetry flows – I was inspired to write this poem in response…

There’s beauty in your poetry
Heartfelt, words blend with care
Expressions penned, most eloquent
Alive through love you share
