Alas, it is indeed a harrowing task to sit on the judgment seat. To me, every poem felt like a fragment bursting from the poet’s heart.
Some enchanted with their imagery, others with lyrical cadence, and many with their profound thoughts—making this a truly challenging experience.
After much reflection and deliberation, here are the results for the first month of Samovar Songs!
The overwhelming response truly moved us, and we are grateful beyond words.
We hope to continue this journey with renewed energy and your continued support!
Poet of the Month:
Rafiya Sayeed
Poems of the Month:
• Echoes in the Wind – Sanjay Pandita
• Hope – Mariam Roshan Zachariah
Kudos and three cheers to all!
Let me also add—every poet who submitted their work is a winner. Each poem was a literary gem.
Heartiest congratulations to all!
