Poetry has always been a fascination for me. I wrote my first poem during my childhood and nurtured the love of poetry throughout my whole life. The exploration and enjoyment of poetry has been a source of strength for me, a sanctuary during times of stress, a delicacy during times of joy. It has led me to appreciate Art and Music in all their forms. I am grateful to the Masters of Poetry through the Ages, because they paved the way for humble poets such as myself.
