afternoon sun throws
its beams on teal sea –
sparkles bright diamonds
Thank you for your visit, my friends!
Happy Sunday!

London Book Fair 2023 – by Anita Bacha
Dear friends and book lovers,
After the pandemic and subsequent confinements , the London Book Fair was back in full swing this Spring from 18 to 20 April 2023.
I visited the Fair as Author, having published my illustrated children’s book’ The Princess and the Crow’ in 2019 with Austin Macauley Publishers Ltd.
I felt on top of the world among the wonderful writers, publishers, illustrators and more, networking and exchanging ideas about the future of books.
In conversation with the Publishers Association, Mayor of London #SadiqKhan said – culture is in the DNA of London. It’s the glue that binds our city together.
Sharing a few photos with you and wishing to be here with you in March 2024.

Greetings from London and thank you for your visit.
First Leaf of the Fall
Behold the first turn of the autumn leaf
From green to amber light,
From yellow to rusty veins;
Behold the game of life,
Like the autumn leaf
We have lived,
Gracefully, we detach,
Knowing life is a gift of God,
We take our leave,
Make way for new leaves
Anita Bacha.

Begonia – A Short Poem by Anita Bacha
Under the showering rain,
Shaken by the swells of the gale,
A sweet, pastel pink, begonia,
A petite, elusive begonia,
Beckons my heart in pain;
A flood of love carries me away,
Drifting me tenderly at bay.
Anita Bacha
Begonia is a short poem from my poetry book‘INK – Echo of life and love’. Published by the biggest publishing house ‘Éditions de L’Ocean Indien’ of Mauritius in 2019.
Sadly, that book is available for purchase solely on the local market. On the other hand and, happily I have a big audience in my birth country. I am loved by the beautiful people of Mauritius and my work is applauded by many.

Thank you for your visit, my dear friends
Happy Evening

Good morning, my dear friends. Feeling Christmassy, I share my white Christmas tree with you.

Be yourself
The moon shines because it does not escape the night;
The rose 🌹 is scented because it has embraced the thorn.
