Dear Editor,
Poetry flows in my blood. How I enjoy reading poems, tasting and drinking until I am satisfied.
I have tried writing poems, but somehow when I read the rich poetry of others, I know I am nowhere in the world of writing quality poetry, although I refuse to lose the joy of reading the work of others. When I write, I share it with a friend or two, before scrapping.
I am encouraging parents to provide the means for their children to write, read, and enjoy poetry. Then they will be developing the heart of the child to be a human heart. I am encouraging parents to have the children read poetry, talk about poetry, and what they enjoyed or did not enjoy.
Some who know me as a teacher of mathematics may well ask how can I love mathematics and poetry at the same time. I do not have an answer.
Yours faithfully,
Krishna Nand Prasad
