I'm once again humbled by the appreciation and approbation that these Poets provided to my reading of DRY HANDS for the March edition of @orenaugmountainpub Orenaug Mountain Publishing's People and Their Poems podcast. 
          
          It goes without saying that the Orenaug Mountain family and its monthly roundtables have become my safe space, my refuge and I revel in the company of these masters of their craft. So thank you once again for your generosity and creative largesse.

It's always a pleasure to share poetic worldviews with such luminaries of the form each month. Hence, the February edition of People and Their Poems podcast courtesy Orenaug Mountain Publishing was no different. Thank you for the gift of sharing these verses and all your unstinted originality and encouragement.
          
          Thank you for making this reading of COLLAGE, a timelessly topical work written a decade ago, resonate across timelines and geographies.

It's an absolute honour to have my poem ANONYMOUS, first published in my debut solo book of poetry A VERDANT HEART, become a part of the excellent archive of Irshaad Poetry.
          
          Irshaad Poetry publishes some of the greatest poets of all times and to receive this opportunity is truly a blessing. Here's to more poetic triumphs and creative evolutions.

Just like a trail of goodwill and poetic evolution helped commence my journey with Orenaug Mountain Publishing @orenaugmountainpub in January, 2025, the new year reiterated the same positive model. 
          
          Here I am, reciting my new poem "BAUL" as part of the monthly Poetry Reading and Roundtable of People and Their Poems Podcast for @orenaugmountainpub, January, 2026. It's always great to have a sense of community lift you up.  May this company of writers continue to lift each other up this year and beyond!!!!
