If I were a flower- A Poem by Anita Bacha

If I were a flower,

If I were a flower for the joy of being a flower,

A leaf for being a leaf,

If I were a stem,

If I were a leaf and a stem to dress up a flower,

If I were a flower that you will place on your heart,

If I were all sleek and purple petals,

Petals to cover the nudity of a flower,

If I were a flower that you will place on your heart,

If I were the eyelids for the delight of being the eyelids,

The lashes for being the lashes,

If I were the eyes,

If I were the eyelids and the lashes to cover your eyes,

If I were a tear,

A tear running down a cheek,

A tear that loses itself in the lips, 

If I were the lips that caress a flower,

If I were the lips and you were a flower…

HER WORLD

Couldn’t be happier to be featured as one of the authors in the newly published book of Her Place. My debut poetry book Soul Poetry is my pride. I believe we all writers feel the same about our first published book. It’s a first born, the apple of our eyes.To cut a long story short, the American writer and poet Dana Vilandre spotted my book on Amazon and…hold your breath…the stories I were posting on WordPress! She fell in love with my writing and I was chosen as one of the 33 women to be featured in Her World. Beauty, thy name is Woman!


Her Place, Any Region, introduces you to Her World, Creative Collections. Enjoy a literary journey through the experiences, hearts, and minds of 33 women from around the world. Compiled in one single readable book, view life from the eyes of phenomenal female artists and authors in the form of photography, song lyrics, book excerpts, personal life experiences, prose, and poetry. We hope you enjoy this incredibly broad spectrum with which these stories are written, bringing women together to share a glimpse into each other’s lives, during a time unifying the population of women is more important than ever

A Christmas Gift 💝

When I was five, I was baffled to open a wrapped gift under the Christmas 🎄 🎅 had offered me,my first children’s book ‘Toto et Titi’. The black and white pictures were amazing. I started to dream of a color picture book and a story about little girls, birds, flowers and fruits. I entertained a thought about a witch too! In those days, when we were a British colony, often there was no electricity in the night and children slept in their mother’s lap,listening to stories of beautiful princesses and ugly witches. No wonder, now a mother and a grandmother too, I have written a story book for children, illustrated with pretty, color pictures. The Princess and the Crow will make the perfect Christmas gift for a child if you, my friend and reader, is looking for a lovely book to offer this Christmas 🎄 Published by Austin Macauley Publishers London earlier this year, the book is available for purchase worldwide on Amazon.
