I have grown around creepers, climbers, roots, branches, twigs and driftwood. Anything or any part of a tree, shrub or herb that looks shapely and catches my mother’s eye go into her collection. From North to South, East to West, the pieces of woods have come from all over India.
My mother’s love for woods gave a new meaning to wood art.
A year to remember. A year of gratitude. A year of forgiveness. A year to heal, Soul, Mind and Body. A year of reflections, recollections and re-connections with Nature. I am, who I am, is solely in complete surrender to the wonders of spiritual journey, laden with surprises and learning in awareness.
I Heal, and You Heal is a short poetry collection, of 20 poems, inspired by Nature, four seasons and the flora and fauna that are the foundation of the persona of Bavaria in Germany.
The fragrance of Earth, the rhythm of raindrops, the life of dried and dying leaves, symbolism of birds and bees, the formation of clouds, the aura of leafless trees, the silence of supportive branches, and the often-ignored wild plants have been mesmerizing and soulful.
The title of the anthology, I Heal, and You Heal is also the first poem in this collection, composed as an ode to Mother Earth on World Earth Day. In the same way, every poem is a connection of the elements of Nature with the depth of “Self”. The theme of the poems is “Hope”, and revolves around life and its journey, birth, death and possibilities of new beginnings.
The year 2020 has indeed been a year of learning and evolving. I Heal, and You Heal is a book of promises and helps to look beyond the “I” of who we are.
