Whispers At My Doorstep My Journey  (English, Paperback, Mira Midha)

In my poems i have tried to capture a profound spirit of all that has come into my life and inspired me. Moments that have touched me, humoured me or made me wonder why, have motivated me to illuminate and personify feelings into creating this book, as a woman i am stirred to write about her in various personas, as in, woman, a woman reborn, a mother to her daughter. As seasons change, nature paints its art with such beautiful harmony, bringing alive the flora and fauna with it. The feel of spring, summer, monsoon, autumn, winter are visual poetry in itself. I get enthused to write. At times i have let my mind deviate from reality into fantasy and have penned poems in the form of ballads and light hearted banter about fun moments in my life. Emotions too take over and a lot of nostalgia and a cache of soul stirring feelings pour out on paper. A neighbourhood stray dog i feed, an old man who begs at my street corner, poverty on the footpaths, a walk in the woods, remembering wistfully all those who have made a difference in my life, the mountains, the sunrise, sunset, all have a story to tell, if only we would pause and listen. For me their existence is my poetry and through my poetry they exist. So come, be a part of this journey and find a connection and a bit of yourself in these pages.
