Mark Twain once said, "I can live for two months on a good compliment." I never totally understood it, until now. Thanks for encouraging words Guarana. These days I am feeling quite distraught too by the ills of our common home, our beautiful blue planet suffering at our own hands. I have written a few poems on these issues. But I am not sure if Chowk is a proper platform for that. I have posted some on my iLog. I would love to get some feedback.
