  3. Absolutely gorgeous, Punam. Way to go. Keep submitting. You should also try Vita Bravis with sth similar. I did but my poetry isn’t suited for their style. Their taste is rather tradition They love luscious language and beautiful imagery so do give it a try.

    1. I just got rejected by a couple of publications because my style did not suit their sensiblities! I guess we win some and lose others. I will definitely try Vita Brevis. Thank you for being there every step of the way, Bo.

      1. That’s how I see it too. I used to get pissed after some rejections but I came to realize it’s all about a fit and different tastes and writting styles. I writer I like gets published a lot in VB and when I read her, I think, that’s it, I can’t write like this…so I go elsewhere.

        I help a bit by pointing the way because I’ve been long in these waters to know some stuff. You do the writing. That’s what counts.

  17. Whoa!!! I think I have a new favourite of yours dear friend! I loved this from the first lines

    Your religion or mine,” inflamed more passions
    than a night together could have
    ..
    I wish for one night,
    only one,
    we could have discarded religion like clothes
    counted each others’ ribs”

    You say so much in such an incredible metaphor. I’m officially in awe. Congratulations on it being published, it certainly deserves it! ❤️❤️

      1. Take my hand and pull me into cloud 9 with you. I’m glad you’re proud, this poem is magnificent. And yes, I’m officially in awe. (I have been for a long time).

        I am ok dear friend, but I’ve also been very busy and my ankle is still grumbling about being stood on. I’ve tried to politely suggest that it is its job after all, but it’s being stubborn about it 😂. Will post again soon ❤️❤️
