As an English teacher myself, I'm so proud to see educators pursuing creative passions outside the classroom. The themes sound profound - can't wait to read how she's woven nature with human emotions.

While I appreciate the CM's support for arts, I wish more established poets got this kind of platform too. The collection sounds interesting though - hope the poems live up to the description.

Buransh (rhododendron) is such an iconic Himachali flower - perfect metaphor for poetry that's rooted in our mountains. Love that she's into biking and trekking too! Real talent comes from lived experiences.

Just bought the ebook version! The poem about solitude in the mountains gave me chills. More power to teacher-poets who inspire both in classrooms and through their art. 👏
