Description
In her first e-book Ghalib Asfute the poet Ishita Bhaduri has explored her capability & skill for the eternal elements of poetry i.e. Love, Separation, Nature & The Almighty in the present scenerio. When she utters " I wish to touch you, not in dreams/ On pristine mornings listen to Bismillah with you/ I wish ardently..." ( “Ichhe kori tomay ami swapno nay, sparsho kori jeno / snigdho sakal tomar sange bismilla suni / ichchhe kare vishon...” ), we once again revert to our belief in the simplicity of elegance.
