博客來Padmini Govender is a poet with a background in financial accounting, but words have always been her true calling. Chasing Petals in the Sun is her second collection, following her debut, The Moon Child.
This collection includes photographs she took during a road trip across beautiful South Africa, paired with short poetic reflections inspired by the landscapes and moments she encountered along the way. Her poetry is rooted in honesty and emotional depth, yet it consistently returns to peace.
Through gentle imagery, mindful pauses, and quiet clarity, her work invites readers into spaces where the heart can soften and the spirit can breathe.Over time, Padmini has strengthened her connection with mind, body, spirit, and soul, often turning to nature for grounding and clarity. Her poems reflect this path and the gentle resilience that comes with it. Her work has appeared in the South Coast Herald, Sakura Magazine, and Paper Trail Literary Journal. She has also contributed to the Poetry is not Dead anthology and to Not Water, Just Ice by Brett ＂Fish＂ Anderson.
