The reason to be in love with this poetry book is, it’s short, lovable and wordy. The collection includes precise clear and lyrical run of poems. Some of them stir the soul while many provide food for thoughts. Not going into depths and complexities for the poems, I found each poem worth reading and relatable — peaceful and naturally loving. You will not want to keep it down. However, I would advise you to read these poems just like you’re drinking a glass of wine…slowly. My mind observed those wise words and my heart was rattled with rejuvenated emotions. It’s a mind stimulating read. The themes in the book are multi-layered, peeling the scrape of emotions gradually. You would love to shuttle between what is being soft and what is being questioned…whatever is distinguished is cult classic.

Some of my favourite like:-

The Flight of Time

It all happened so fast,

One moment they were in first grade,

They next in tenth,

The years passed by so quickly no one know where they went.

The Timeless Wheel

Timeless,

Where success eludes due to one misstep

Timeless,

Where every child wishes for the world that they dream

Timeless,

When people realize the world is not as it seems.

These above stanzas are somewhere connected to me as and when now I see my life through retrospection. The biggest game of our life is Time. At times it is hard to pass it, and sometimes it flits by the blink of eyelash. Those who have memories of happy time will relate most with the first one. I believe we are all shaped by time. It is the rudimentary base of our lives.

I definitely recommend this book. You will love it. This is the one that I know I would keep coming back to. The cover page of the book is attractive and eye-catching, indicating the world of a girl. The combination of black and whitish Tundra is the symbol of being forever…timelessness…and never-ending. The font and galley in the book is quite fine and visible, easy to read and spot on any line of interest. Kashvi’s penmanship is simple and sober, even laymen can understand her prose and poetry.

A beginner friendly book!! Overall, it is worth reading. The book is available to buy from Amazon.
