seed moon
the other side
of the wind
— Alan Summers
As a citizen of Bangladesh, I am a proud Bengali. We fought for our mother language, our
independence, our freedom. I live in a country where one can see the beauty of six
seasons, soothing nature, an overwhelmed peace and the silence of a solitary moon. I feel
the freedom of a bird, and I live with love. When I selected these poems, these attributes got
priority. I hope the ku that I selected for this month will be appreciated by all. I believe that it will bring a new aura, will make all the poets more connected and will enhance the interaction
among each other as well.
Thank you all.
