(1) A Friendship Bridge

You made me love the teachings of Tagore. My thoughts were mesmerized by your sitar. I kept the little flowers from India, Artfully pressed to span a century. Creative journeys never really end. Our era is a lamp that still burns on. I send some thoughts like flowers overseas Their fragrance will outlast both you and me. Your world class mind inspires me every day To build a friendship bridge from West to East. By touching souls with others, I touch yours. The wonder of that sets two worlds alight. 'For the former editor of Ocarina, Dr. Amal Ghose who inspired me to build friendship bridges between poets of the East and West' Copyright,2008, Sandra Fowler
