Fermenting Flowers
"Fermenting Flowers" is the name of the book of poems of a very dear friend of mine Chirag Bangdel. As he calls it, its a small chapbook...but i must tell you, this small chapbook has some wonderful poems and one needs a heart to understand what he is trying to convey through those poems. I had a delightful reading experience and there are many poems in this book that i have come to love, but one of my personal favorites is the poem called Uphill.
The Uphill tires me
You walk fast
and ahead
Strange,
I always thought
that i'd lead you.
You reach to the top
You laugh at me
and my weakness
I am a bad walker
Yet,
you come running back to my arms
laugh at me,still
and push me from behind
all the way to the top.
See?
I am supposed to lead.
Its a lovely collection of short poems and i would suggest all to have a copy of it and enjoy engrossing yourself in the reading!!!
