REVIEW OF MY POEM SOMETHING I LOOK AT-2
Thanks and gratitude to Prof Cijo Joseph Chennelil, eminent poet and literary critic for writing a brilliant critical appreciation on my poem 'SOMETHING I LOOK AT-2'.Thank you very much, sir, for your wonderful words of appreciation
Smurti Ranjanji,
Your poem titled"Something I Look At-2" is a poem of lost chances to pursue goodness and the options that are to be explored further in this world of opportunities. The sorry for mindset is quite obvious here, those moments of joy and happiness are bygone things altogether. To secure one's position, mistakes are committed, the reputations of many are destroyed and false accusations are levelled against the pious souls but now the time to be regrettable for all those dubious acts should be opted and taken to its eventual conclusion. The backstabbing and other acts of despicable nature should have been avoided and clear love of humanity shown should have been availed upon, so it is time to seek a new world of righteous nature. Kudos to you for composing such a straight-forward and marvellous poem.

SOMETHING I LOOK AT-2
BY-SMRUTI RANJAN MOHANTY
I regret and lament
those lost moments,
tiny pleasures and little cravings
which will never come back
I will never forgive myself
for the injustice meted out to someone else
and the denial of trifling demands and petty wishes
carefully nurtured and harboured for so long
I regret crucifying life and
making nothing out of everything
lovingly offered and meticulously served
at various stations of life
