O knihe

By the time I was six, my father, a hobbyist in palmistry, was
convinced I was a "born artist". That prompted him to enrol me
in one of Chennai's reputed institutions in classical dancing.
The sensitivities I gained thereafter through the training I
received in two different classical dance forms, followed by my
pursuits in singing, acting, photography,
craft, public speaking, painting and a
career in advertising, eventually found
common ground in poetry-writing. Dance,
in particular, did much to influence my
feelings about the Supreme Being whose
implied presence in many of my poems,
finds its way through praise, loving
complaint and even frustration.
I think this world is beautiful notwithstanding the pain, poverty
and persecution because the goodness overwhelms what is bad.
I see beauty in the most ordinary things in life even as I walk
by on the road. In fact, many of the poems I have written have
been inspired by the endearing sights I have been exposed to on
the roadside.
I am greatly troubled to think that I should soon be gone --- there
are too many things to see, love, admire, ponder over and enjoy
on this earth! This book of poems, to say the least, is an open,
unstoppable celebration of life!
