You are welcome, Salvia. Say, how do you upload a photo to appear on top of the poem you post ? Thank you. Today is the anniversary of Mauritian independence. Narendra Modi is visiting and is our chief guest. There are unbreakable ties between Mauritius and India.... since 1835... Soman Ragavan. 12 March, 2025.

Illusions in Reality
Soman Ragavan said:
What we can’t get, we create in our own minds. This is a way of coping, of living with frustrations, with unrealised dreams. Here, what imagination brings is beautiful but deceitful. The soul needs a place where it can live peacefully. When we can’t find that place in real life, we must create it in our minds, in our hearts. This is a necessity, it is a way for us to face life, to stay sane, to manage our frustrations and the obstacles placed in our way.
“[On T. GAUTHIER, 1811-1872)]. In a world in which everything is impermanent, the poet, by rearranging reality into art, can create something that will have more permanent value. ...... Art can thus provide the poet with a solace for his mortality while he is alive and the hope of immortality in death….” --\"TWELVE FRENCH POETS. 1820-1900. AN ANTHOLOGY OF 19TH CENTURY FRENCH POETRY.\" London : Longmans, Green and Co., 1957. (Third impression, 1959). (With an Introduction and Notes by Douglas Parmée). Full acknowledgements are made to the authors, publishers and rights-holders.
We need solace not just from mortality but also as a way of coping with what happens around us. –Soman Ragavan.

Unknowingly Blessed
Soman Ragavan said:
“What someone doesn\'t care for,
Is a blessing in disguise for someone.”
There are just two lines here, but they point to a valuable truth. Not caring for something might turn out to be the best option, for caring might end you in trouble. Thus, the title “Unknowingly blessed.” An invisible hand led you away from something that might have been harmful to you.

Summer Serenity
Soman Ragavan said:
The words paint an idyllic picture, just like the picture accompanying the poem.
“Lost their leaves in drought\'s might
Waiting for the next spring to arrive...”
The might of the drought overcame the flowers. However, hope is introduced here : next spring. Thus, the flowers do not die off; they will rejuvenate with a change in the seasons. Soman Ragavan.

Trust your Gut
Soman Ragavan said:
There is a saying “gut feeling.” It is a mystery; it cannot be explained. We don’t even know precisely where it occurs; however, we call it “gut feeling.” It comes from some mysterious part of us, some place we cannot precisely point out. But, it definitely occurs. It can and does overrule the brain sometimes. Thus, we might listen to that gut order and bypass our brain, though the brain churns through a lot of past experiences to give us, most of the time, the safest option. But, we still overrule the brain when the gut feeling takes hold of us. It appears that the gut feeling is an additional means given to us, to supplement the brain. It is not tied down to logic or experience. When facing an entirely new experience, that feeling can still order us which action to take. So, as we don’t have a previous experience in the matter, how come we listen that that gut feeling ?... The gut feeling is also called “hunch.” There was a case in the US where a family was passing in front of a house in their car. The kid in the car kept saying he felt something was wrong in that house. Arriving home, he convinced his parents to return to that house of a total stranger. They found somebody needing help there...
