Renowned Indian Poet Rachna Gupta’s new anthology “Kaleidoscope – The Changing Colors of Love” has been released recently. The book is published by AuthorsPress and has 37 poems that revolve around love. The poems move in a very cyclical pattern epitomizing the advent of love in one’s life, followed by a sudden estrangement and a hopeful return of love, in its own mysterious way.
Kaleidoscope talks about an emotion so strong that it has the potential to create and destroy! Love in all its capacity has that aura around it; it needs to be felt and when it resides in your soul you find it giving rise to feelings never experienced before. There is passion and tenderness when being together, estrangement and pain when two souls are apart and then there is joy and relief when bound together again.
The book is divided into three distinct sections, each reflecting an emotional state in the course of love. The first section titled ‘The beginning of love’ has 15 poems; the second section titled ‘Separated by Miles’ also has 15 poems and the last section which has 7 poems is titled ‘Love finds a Way.’
Rachna Gupta maintains a very emotional tone throughout the book; her style being easy and elegant. Written in blank verse, her poems reveal her style of unhurried poetry, though it often tends to become repetitive. Her choice of words, undoubtedly, is simple, yet is saved from the glare of profanity by her control over the subject. On the whole, one can read Kaleidoscope to relive or sink into memories of love.
The poetess is also an educationist, content writer, book reviewer and blogger. Being a thinker, her mind is always brimming with ideas that are transformed into poems, prose, quotations and stories. She chooses to use writing to speak about things that matter to her. Her poems are made up of simple yet meaningful words. When she is not writing, she is busy working with an NGO.
