The Percipience: Sensuous and Sagacious

By Shiva Kanaujia Sukula

Life is subtly intense to explore and unearth everything that comes across. Spares no chance to bring everything to surface though the smile is fake or laughter is trade; the poems in the book have contrived to reveal the every facet that is labyrinthine about temporal relations or intimate behaviors. The author presents the human inclinations and demeanor conduct in an alluring way that comprehends the myriad experiences as penetrations beyond the skin as well as perception.

Shiva Kanaujia Sukula

Being around the books and the people has always been a curious cave for me. Few of them provide an explicit picture in the natural sense and rests of them invite an endeavored discovery. Shiva Kanaujia Sukula, as a keen observer, finds the surroundings of apparent mutable behaviors and immutable emotions intriguing and compelling to consider weaving them in words. Currently she works at Jawaharlal Nehru University, New Delhi. She belongs to a beautiful home, with her husband and son.

Preface

The poetry seems easy to call in heart yet difficult to express in the words

The poems here reflect the swinging and deep trenches of the life as boons or curse

From the mirage we experience in our dreams to the unpleasant events that lead a person

To say and compel to write are the myriad subjects to put down

The human heart pounce on the love may also leap into the sky if amazed by the experiences;

Beyond the stereotyped societal frameworks

Even the love does not happen in a quintessential way to state uniformity in its nature or shape

The poems speak loud the intricacies about the same

The catastrophe may appear through a rose when torn or withered

Love may be found in a single glance of an eager fellow passenger

The senses, sagacity, sensuous nature of human mind and behavior with the spices

Of possessiveness, innocence or the hurt have been woven delicately

What we see that any of the emotions do not end at any stage of life

And when they reappear at later stage create miracles or disasters, sometimes

The faces that a person poses are not only one and been beautifully presented by expressions

Of others’ perceptions; the poems have become diverse faces in this book

The style has been simple, sometimes in rhyme, also free verses

The flow of thoughts and words in stanzas

Holds the keenness of the reader who visits

The same experiences as the author has been once

Counting numbers and Hopes

Days and dates on numerous sheets

Invite the glances

At least there is a cause to count the hopes

Presence of present is denied

In future, are the senses!

When someone longs for the past to appear in hopes

They bath in ‘Moon River’i along with myriad stars

In the mesmerized forest densely enchanted

The waves recite symphony in eagerness of hopes

Mother or lover; the stones or the path

To hold the solicitous embrace never turns away the chances

Inside their bosom the memory abodes

Wind besieged in the arms of extraneous affinities

The righteous flow was taken for granted

Languished somehow in the webs of ropes

(Trying to find a substance
