lakshmi krishnadas pai

This book contains 20 poems each in Hindi, Kannada, English, Tamil and Urdu. Each non - English poem is followed by its translation in English.

The beginning of a beautiful, challenging, and exciting linguistic journey of lyrical rhyme and rhythm began for this lady poet about two years ago. Today, a hundred poems later, she is eager to share her feelings with others. For feelings and experience is what it is all about. It is but inevitable that subjective opinions punctuate her expressions. She makes no generalizations and she has no argument with any disagreements that may be felt by some of the readers.

She is humbled and grateful to God for this creative bonus that has come her way in the evening of her life. She is indebted to her husband who has stood by her in every endeavor of hers. But for his understanding, tolerance, and sacrifice, she could not have become a singer nor could she have experienced the ecstasy of being a poet.

She is the only female poet in the world to have written poems in five different languages as per information available on the internet today.
