Why frame pictures?
On the other hand
We need to give away most
They occupy space
Besides who would want them after us
They are already faded
So many years of hanging
On a single nail
Rusty now.
~ GEETA
 
i dare, so i love.
i dare to call the world
my own, so i love.
~ SHREEKUMAR
 
Geeta Varma is a poet of simplicity. Her words become emotion and remembrance, her settings are beautiful islands of a faraway reality that returns to haunt us again and again. The song of the violin will continue to haunt us much after we have put this book down....
 
About the Author
Geeta Varma: There's poetry on paper. And there's poetry in storage, whose fragrance wafts in its own secret garden. Geeta Varma's poems were of the garden variety until now. Her first book of published poems is addressed To My Violin. Her poetry is now open to the world, but the muse is still speaking to the music. Having lived in different parts of India, she grew up principally in Kerala and is now settled in Chennai with her family. But the muse is still unsettled. And seeking, as you will see. M.A., B.Ed., P.G.D.T.E. Apart from these academic qualifications, her education has been from life: teaching school children, running a magazine, taking creative life classes, writing for major newspapers & magazines, and traveling.
