- December 21, 2016
Poetry is food for our souls which kindles varied emotions in us, and no soul on the earth is untouched by the beauty and depth of poetry. It’s not only an art but, also one of the most important and powerful forms of literature.
In 2016, JWB rhymed their feelings with what these poets feel. They are making a mark in the world, one poem at a time.
When JWB met ‘The Dissonant Soul’
Aditya Hirawat from Jaipur is channelizing his painful past and present of being perpetually skinny-shamed through poetry. Through his poems, he’s not only slamming body-shamers, but he’s also encouraging body-positivity.
I just hope the seeds get proper nutrition this time. #WordPorn #SpilledInk #PoemsPorn #WritersNetwork #TheDissonantSoul

When JWB Blogger Turned into a Poet
JWB Blogger, Jayati, which is me *batting my eyelashes* loves Piyush Mishra’s poems. Now and then, even I have tried my hand at poetry.
“Tears in my eyes,
Love in my heart,
And with big dreams for future,
I enter into a new life.
It’s a new home in a new city,
And new people gather around me…..”
You can read my poems, ‘New Bride,’ here, and ‘Chained and Caged,’ here.
