Even if you’re a fairy tale enthusiast like me, you still need to make a little time in your life for poetry. If you’re feeling like savoring some verses where every word is weighed, consider checking out Ms. Singh’s work.
This collection is sure to satisfy existing fans–like her previous work, these poems focus on relationships and growth, and the pain that comes with both. Joy is given its full measure as well–no need to fear that the outlook is bleak. The following is from my favorite poem, “I am with You!”
“On the wings of freedom
Soaring higher than the clouds
If you could divest those earthly shrouds
To embrace this evanescent experience
I am with you.
Together we quit the foolish faction
That takes pleasure in strife and command
In search of our own lustrous land
Far from those who create craters
Trust is our anchor.
You may call it escapism
But we fly for love, for peace
Away from this chaotic crease
Carrying the silent message of breeze
Embracing echoes within.”

Seriously, this piece could have been penned with fairytale-tellers in mind.

I’m so glad you like it, Balroop. I dithered a bit about the point of view (I hardly expect all your readers to be fantasy writers or readers), but in the end I went with what’s “me.” 🙂

Writers of all forms and genres ought to make more time to read poetry. Poems need to be read slowly, a skill we could all stand to refresh in the constant communications onslaught of the Information Age!
