Thanks and gratitude to Prof Cijo Joseph Chennelil, eminent poet and literary critic for writing a beautiful review on my poem 'A LOOK AT LIFE-43'. Thank you very much sir for your wonderful words Smruti Ranjanji, Your poem titled"A Look At Life-43"is a poem of nostalgia and the desolation felt due to the disappearance of the good old days,the days of vibrancy and exuberance are gone,now it is a life of alienation,isolation,loneliness,disappointments and disillusionments,today it is all about having a desertion in terms of life,everything seems lost in the wilderness,the glorious days of the past taunt the thought processes like anything,the futility of building a posh house with all facilities and amenities is so apparent now because the expectations and anticipations of the past are so much belied now,those dreams and aspirations are shattered and battered now,the luxurious aspects of the household are left in ruin nowadays,they hold resplendent memories of the

Thanks and gratitude to eminent poet and literary critic Prof Cijo Joseph Chennelil and Prof Sir Mohan Patnaik for writing critical appreciation on my poem 'THE BEAUTY OF LOVE'. Thank you so much adorable literary luminaries for your presence and wonderful words of appreciation. I am honoured. Smrutiji, Your poem titled"The Beauty of Love"is a poem that takes the emotion of love into the domain of sum and substance.The concept of love does have two extremes of joy and sorrow happening to it one after the other.The person who is bitten by the love bugs remains in the whirlpool of emotional turmoil.When,the mind is lost in the wilderness of love,nothing affects the self in any way and at any rate.The love characterised here does have no sign of abating and it is not ridden with guilt whatsoever.The freshness of this love is everlasting and eternal and it does not budge an inch in terms of its practice and existence.The problems,worries and tensions born out of love

Thanks and gratitude to eminent poet and literary critic Prof Cijo Joseph Chennelil and Prof Sir Mohan Patnaik for writing critical appreciations on my poem 'RHYMING WITH LOVE' Thank you so much revered Cijo sir and Mohan sir for your wonderful words of appreciation. Smrutji, Your poem titled"Rhyming With Love"is a rendition with adequate description to the minutest details regarding the very concept of love from different perspectives and viewpoints.Real love does adduce the self with that resplendent feeling.The freshness of a person is kept intact internally when true love does have an overwhelming impact on him/her.The true love transcends above space,time,past,present and future.The soundbyte of love is everlasting and enduring.The true love must be nurtured and brought into fruition.If the concept of love is driven by commercial interests,it gets into an arena of no return or it becomes a love of mechanical nature.The true love must be sprouted out directly

SOMETHING I LOOK AT-94 BY-SMRUTI RANJAN MOHANTY         THE BEAUTY OF LOVE the heart sheds tears of love asking none to come near, the soul immerses in deep agony feeling silently the pangs of sorrow the wounds remain as such, fresh, aching and bleeding without being cured and you live in an exclusive world of your own where happiness and sorrow hardly matter that is love more like walking on the edge of a razor with no signs of repentance and sorrow, no looking back, no dreams for a different tomorrow it pinches and pinches hard, but lived and loved the way it is being the only possession you can't part with the wounds and tears the moments of agony and ecstasy your dearest possession they are part of you and your love so dear and passionate no wind can blow it away no sun can dry it, no winter can moist it no rain can drench it, no therapy can cure it it will remain with you as a feeling, a shadow,  and will never leave you even when your love wi

Thanks and gratitude to Prof Cijo Joseph Chennelil, an eminent poet and internationally acclaimed literary critic for his brilliant critical appreciation of my poem's LOOK AT LIFE-34'.Thank you very much, sir, for your brilliant words of appreciation Smruti Ranjaniji, Your poem titled"A  Look At Life-34" is a poem that spells out the fundamental principles concerning human life and also the areas in which we need to make essential changes so that this life of us here on this earth turns out to be a fruitful and worthwhile one. As each and every moment we live in this world, we walk towards our final destination, that is the ultimate truth related to life in general here on this earth. We also live selfish oriented life here on earth focusing upon fickle inclined and fleeting worldly pleasures such as wealth, positions, powers and crude sex. We also act in an impulsive manner showing all our negative vibes and we are also a bundle of egos, complexes, betrayals,

Thanks and gratitude to Prof Cijo Joseph Chennelil, eminent poet and literary critic for writing a beautiful review on my poem 'A LOOK AT LIFE-13'. Thank you very much sir for your wonderful words of appreciation Smurti Ranjanji, Your poem titled"A Look At Life-13"is a poem that does dwell upon a deeper meaning concerning life in every step of the way,the detachment must be the order of the day to get out of all disillusionments and disappointments in life,the more we are attached,the more unhappiness we would bring into our lives slowly but surely,sometime all the attachments are to be done away with so that we reach that height of self enlightenment in the course of time,in this world today,we do live under the cloud of fear,we apprehend about an era of nasty prospects,we also have fear regarding the things going terribly wrong and we are in the conundrum of such doubts,although we do have fear about things which don't belong to us,though we claim ownershi

A LOOK AT LIFE 33 BY-SMRUTI RANJAN MOHANY Allow me to groom The heart of my heart The way you nourish The pupil of your eyes Let him have a bit Of the avenues You so proudly and zealously Preserve for your own He has the same vision The values of the larger society Largely defined In terms of pelf and power But opportunities are unequal Circumstances are different I know he is fighting a lost battle But he hopes against hope And thinks still he can make it To the top My master Why are you so annoyed His only fault He dreams high Knowing well He is up against all odds The tide of life And irony of fate He asks Why the world is So unequal And answers himself And says You do not know But I know it He says, Papa, I am proud of you For what you have done The way you brought me up On your sweat and blood I remember all those Toiling days and Gloomy nights and  will Never allow me to forget Any of these I have the instinct And tenacity of

SOMETHING I LOOK AT-106 BY-SMRUTI RANJAN MOHANTY     RHYMING WITH LOVE fall in love with love feel its warmth and beauty it will not allow  you to grow old you will remain young forever if you are true to your love it never ages nor it will let you age as long as you are in love, with its rhythm and rhyme don't let it silently languish let it blossom with all its colour or else you will only make you a machine devoid of a heart and your true grandeur keep it burning deep inside don't leave loving and living you will be only killing yourself bathe in the perennial stream of love let the dirt and filth accumulated leave your mind and body open your eyes! and see how beautiful life is love never lives with apathy and negativity ego, suspicion, hatred, jealousy and hypocrisy get over these, that will make you a lover otherwise, you can never be in love not the easiest of things to be in love it is a hero's bravery, not a coward's longing
