Soliloquy of Eternity

In these difficult times for us it is comforting to those who love literature to know that there are poets like Anjali Sahoo writing. Her poems encompass a number of issues; but more importantly is about her foresight of seeing in the future in the past and how to share that insight. Id like to quote two lines which impressed me: (The civilization) ...wraps the wreckageBy re-wearing a more reddened attire With new holes fashioned by the spent bullets...(After Every War)Jayanta MahapatraDistinguished poet and EditorChandrabhagaCuttack India Anjali Sahoos Soliloquy of Eternity is filled with delightful poetry. Some of these are meditative works are brief and provoke smile of recognition. Others are longer and offer serious insights for the reader to contemplate. Anjalis playfulness with words her skillful use of alliteration and general love of language is wonderful as is her fresh and unexpected imagery. I always enjoy reading her poems again and again.Brian YapkoPoet Santa Fe New Mexico USA Soliloquy of Eternity is replete with typical Anjali Sahoos poems with her philosophical revelations like Robert Frost her freshness of vision like Walt Whitman her dexterous use of literary devices more particularly alliterations and assonances like G.M. Hopkins and her rooted belongingness in Indian Cultural Tradition like Jayanta Mahapatra.
