Thanks and gratitude to Prof Cijo Joseph Chennelil, the eminent poet and literary critic for his brilliant critical appreciation of my poem's LOOK AT LIFE-3'.Thank you very much, sir, for your wonderful words Smruti Ranjaniji, Your poem titled"A Look At Life-3" is a poem of the spiritual dimension. The individual concerned in the poem regrets about his/her abandonment of God in his/her life here on this earth. God is along with us all in every step of the way, but often we fail to locate his presence in our midst. God is someone who is present when we need or not need him, he takes care of us each and every moment of our lives. God makes his constant presence in our lives from the beginning to the end, at no time, he shows any relenting in his love of us, he creates us and gives us the freedom to be on our own, our creator is such a benevolent figure indeed. In the course of time in our lives, we misuse the freedom that is granted to us by God Almighty and also we are more interested in the materialistic aspects of life created by him not himself, thereby we forego him and turn our lives into big cesspools. Here, the individual in the poem requests the God to bestow upon him/her one more chance so that he/she can make amendments to his/her life by not going after the ways of the world which he/she has done in the past. Kudos to you for composing such a poem of highly spiritual nature. Written by Cijo Joseph Chennelil.
