Etched in beaten gold

As mottos go,

A gift of worth untold.

Nothing is impossible

When you set out to achieve

If consistency and focus

In your performance, you weave.

The Heart ... It's Culpable!

I post this poem in solidarity with all who have lost a deeply-loved someone, irrespective of the relationship and the reason for the loss.

I hope this poem encourages kindness, compassion, understanding and empathy towards those of us who are living without a much loved someone.

Today is Day 8 and the last day of the poetry challenge that I was nominated to, by Poet Jyoti Thatte. Thank You Jyoti.

Neenu Sachdev is a fellow Josephite, who quite likes my poetry.

Thank you Neenu!

I will be posting 10 poems from my anthology that I have not posted before, and I dedicate them to Neenu in appreciation for her ongoing encouragement.

And I start with a poem on one of my many kittens.
