Or is there a favourite poem you think you have written especially well?<br />"<br />Akila: All my poems have a bit of me, for I am largely shaped out of my own thoughts. So are all of us, mostly. Perhaps, the one written, for my dotty dear, shared above, for now, remains a poem close to my heart!"<br />Above question and answer was so touching....the love mother,grand-mother, daughter all put in one sentance with pure honesty revealing that all poems have"ä bit of you"...how honestly expressed!

Akila, I really have enjoyed getting to know you & your poetry through your blog; so seeing you featured here is 'icing on the cake.' How wonderful that you have been writing poetry since the age of nine and even still have your first poem; and also that your family is so supportive and encouraging of your talent. Your little daughter is beautiful.<br /><br />You said you came a long way in your writing since beginning to blog. I understand that, as I think I have too. I look forward to reading more of your poetry and think you for sharing here on Poets United, Akila.Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07366010389846904663noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4139625267522039683.post-31651599047423626862013-04-01T17:56:25.678-04:002013-04-01T17:56:25.678-04:00Lovely to get to know Akila a little better.
