The Elusive Fountain Of Youth – Poem by Gulnar Raheem Khan

Reflections By The Beach – Poem by Suja Ram
The blue sky, the white waves
The rise and the fall

And which roaring waves to avoid.

An epitome of chastity and calm
Her serene waters belie an inner fortitude.
She cleanses our aberrations and sins
And flows relentlessly in solitude.

The Humble Childhood – Poem by Kokila Gupta
A few have just returned from reaping crops, dry cheeks ruddy from cold
Grass blades glued on their handsewn clothes, Still panting from the exertion
Hands parched scratched from digging out tubers from hard earth
Tiny fingers frayed, a few swollen tender
