‘Kuch Teri Kuch Meri’ is a soulful collection of some of the most achingly sweet poetries
carved out from an equally intense, lovable debutante Poet Preeti Daksh. The book takes you on an emotional roller coaster of a journey of
the Poet as well as highlights insightfully the pitfalls and bane of the
society. The book is unputdownable and leaves you asking for more. Even after
oscillating amid a range of emotions, the book stays with you for a long
time and nudges your conscience now and then with its essence that becomes your
soul.
‘Chand se aa Jao Papa’ is the
masterpiece of the book and it won’t be an exaggeration to say this poem just
stirs your heart, juggles the mind and you are hard pressed to choke back tears.
This one melts you absolutely. ‘Chitti Papa Ke Naam’ and ‘Meri Beti’ stops the
time and drench your core with tender love and longings. ‘Tumhari Yaadein’, ‘Tum
Bin’, ‘Ek Behen ki ashish’ portray the pangs of separation while ‘Behne’, ‘Mere
Papa’ reflect the Poet’s gratefulness towards her relations.
The rebel’s angst against age
old customs and hypocrisy of the society pours out in ‘Vrindavan ki Vidhva’, ‘Sita
ka Vyatha’, ‘Pagal Ladki’, ‘Boot Polish’ and ‘Atankwaad’ amongst others. These verses
echo the Poets’ extreme sense of conscience which is pained at the charade of
our ancient customs and beliefs.
Like the icing on the cake,
don’t miss the Haikus and Taankas. these are little gems, crafted with finesse and technical splendour and form the last few pages of the book.
Here is a book from a true
blue rockstar who has led her life staring at the hardships and overriding the
storms and sliced her path to victory. It’s a tribute to life in all forms and
no amount of encomiums and tribute is enough to hail the Poet. The least we can
do is buy the book and flip through the pages , caress the words from the world
of a dainty pretty lady, who stands tall
with sheer genius of her poems.
Go. Grab one! Know What Life is!
