H.S.Bhatia As A Poet

H.S.Bhatia, born in 1936 and a lecturer in English At A.S.College, Khanna, Punjab Is a poet of his type, Trying his hands At socio-realistic, romantico-earthly poems, Sometimes witty, sometimes humorous, Sometimes earthly, sometimes spiritual. A writer of The Burning Petals, The Necklace Wild And The Music Comes, He is a student of Eliot, Deriving music from His The Waste Land, But failing to fuse in and remix really To produce the music. As a poet, he dabbles in pseudo-spirituality, Giving earthly touches to his poems, Sometimes wit and conceit, Sometimes wit and humour, Sometimes fact and fiction Take the canvas of his poetry. Though he appears to be a metaphysician, But is not, A poet of ground realities And social values Is H.S.Bhatia, The man and the poet.
