Ashru and Aathavani

This is a small yet sincere attempt to compile and present a collection of poems, bringing together a few selected pieces to share with readers. Through these poems, I have tried to explore a variety of themes such as character sketches, children's poetry, social awareness and shortcomings, self-talk (monologues), word-painting of everyday necessities, and experiences from the COVID period."Tears and reminiscence" is a collection that captures the incidents around us, people-from children to the elderly-relationships, objects, and emotions, all drawn as a word-crafted graph of life and feelings.Some of it happened knowingly, some unknowingly... but in the process, I discovered a beautiful tool to express myself. For me, this journey has been magical, overwhelming, and deeply enriching.
