Since you have closed comments on your post, just wanted to send warm hugs and prayers for your surgery. Would be waiting for a dripping with love verse post-surgery. Don’t break too many hearts in the hospital. ❤️

Thank you so much.
Break hearts in the hospital? Ha. Going in there to finally mend mine.
I had to close comments to make sure I get sufficient rest. Punam, I don’t know how long I will be gone, but I want you to know you and your poetry will be missed.

Congratulations! Really well deserved.
Interesting word choices, “ascetic, cherubic” It somehow adds a depth, some levels to the writing. It delves profoundly into the psyche. Brilliant!!
