A Commerce Graduate from Bombay University! Born (before many centuries), and brought-up in Bombay (Mumbai) but currently i live with my better-half ANSUYA (pet-named Anu) in BAHRAIN (M. East). Employed as Financial Accountant with leading Import firm in Gulf, dealing in pharmaceuticals, etc. I’m a down-to-earth Male, but often ride on white-winged Pegasus to unexplored continents and unknown lands to pen poems. Call me a debut or a ‘budding’ poet. Although I’ve been writing poems since my college days, but I became serious about poems, almost three years ago, when my daughter NANDITA encouraged me to enter in ‘International World Poetry Contest’ and one of my poems ‘LOVE STORY’ made it to the finals! My poetries revolve around words and imagery, but Melancholy usually peeps in most of my poems, through a tiny key-hole. I strongly believe - “Life is pendulum between a tear and a smile”…<<
