Kolkata, The Heart Of India Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak
Kolkata, The Heart Of India
Living in the moment here in Kolkata, the heart of
India, a fascinating and beautiful city filled with
people and excitement.
Thrilled with each sight, totally enjoying being here
in a foreign country which has now become a favorite
of mine and of my heart.
Night falling, darkness slowly and silently enveloping
my presence, carefully and quietly letting my spirit be
consumed in this pastime of total music and contemplation.
Falling into patterns and designs of this bustling city,
there may be many poor and poverty-ridden sections, yet
everywhere I go, people are smiling back at me genuinely
from their hearts to mine and I back to them.

Dear RoseAnn, It is not easy to hear nice things about this city of ours. For often it is berated, even by its own children and kin. Feels so nice to read such wonderful lines about Kolkata from a poet of your caliber. God has his own ways of soothing, and nothing like the sweet melody and rhythm of a poet's verses. Thank you so much!
