Tanka for my Daughter (:

OMG! Ugadi is just about to come. I wrote a Tanka for my daughter.

I wrote a Tanka for my daughter and here it is -:(

snow covered
Christmas tree brightly glows
in the early morning--
four hands wrapped
around a cup of coffee

Updated Profile -:)

You sit at a place for dinner and the menu is given to you. I am always given a liqour menu though I do not drink. But I check the very first page of it for single malt. Last night, I decided to ignore my habit of checking the first page, and read it backwards.:).....but still landed to first page:)

I am writing erotic haiku these days and I am just loving it. I enjoy to romance with words now:). Recently, one of my erotic haiku also got shortlisted for an anthology. 

I have been quite busy for last few days and it is good as your mind is occupied for writing. I just added my latest book to my Amazon profile and here is the link -


Monday - the first day of the week. Look for a brighter day and a great week ahead. 

Cheers!

A Pinch of Love, Peace and Humanity GOES LIVE!

Dear Readers -

After three months of hard work, I am happy to share the link of our anthology project- A Pinch of Love, Peace and Humanity by ten international authors who joined hands to pen down their experiences - to make this world a better place to live. As I read every story of this book, I feel coddled and cosseted. The beautiful prose poetry by one of the most popular poets in the world adds freshness to my mornings. A thought initiated by an author from Pakistan beaded together many thoughts of authors from different countries into a rosary called – A Pinch of Love, Peace and Humanity. Finally the project goes live for our readers and friends. Our book ‘A Pinch of Love, Peace and Humanity’ is all available for all of you at the link – https://www.createspace.com/4718042

Thanks to all the authors who are part of this book. Special thanks to Hammad Khan for coming up with such a brilliant idea. Where the world is under threat of terrorism, we decided to write a book about love, peace and humanity across borders. 17 true stories in 132 pages can change your way to look at life.



Grab your copy and share the link on your FB and twitter to help us spread the message of love, peace and humanity around the globe.

Just 17 stories in 132 pages written in 90 days can do wonder to the world!

Thanks for reading me so far. This is my third anthology and 6th book as well.

Cheers!
