stranded banyan hibernates
through curtain of light

Alabaster moon
Hearkening to thunderstorm
Petrified seamen
Lost in the midst of nowhere
Haunting memories of home

Photo my own clicked at the Pullman, St.Pancras,London in June 2019.
In that month I was attending a book event, the Jaipur Literary Festival at the British Library. I seized the opportunity to book a room at Pullman and, to kill two birds with one stone, enjoying the luxury of a hotel room vis à vis the British Library and spending memorable time with world acclaimed writers, to name a few, Irving Finkel ,author of ‘ The Lifeboat that saved the world’ , Shashi Tharoor, who has authored many books including ‘ Why I am a Hindu’ and Marcus Du Sautoy the author of the amazing’ The Creative Code – How AI is learning to write,paint and think.’
I have read the three books and other books I bought at the event but, I fell in love with the books of the Master of Haiku, Matsuo Bashō!
Hence, today’s haiku is my offering to you, my dear friends, Thank you for your visit.
Anita Bacha.
