These poems in the poetry collection have  an impressive simplicity of style devoid of  archaic and artificial diction. The chief  interest of these poems is the  employment of imagery with  extraordinary effectiveness.  Particularly impressive is attractive diction and admirable phrasing.  The  style of these poems exhibits crispness and energy devoid of any obscurity.

How many times do we walk through a garden and wonder about the mood of the flowers or stand under a tree and perceive what it desires? Do we really understand the preparedness of a winter for spring or the long wait of summer for the monsoon? ‘Between Seasons’ takes us into that realm where the angst of April melts into refreshing raindrops of July; you can almost hear the whispers of trees and the aspiration of creepers, and realize the connection the poet feels with these elements. Her words reach out to you when she shares with us the pain of losing her dog; talks about her conflicts of being a woman, a poet, and a professional; and writes about loneliness and sectarian violence.

These poems are simple but insightful; there is warmth and honesty in them that will touch you deeply. The emotional ones with melancholic endings may move you to tears; while others will make you rejoice in the mirth of relationships with your loved ones. This book is for nature and animal lovers, feminists, humanists, and just about everyone.

These poems in the poetry collection leave no doubt in our minds that the poet is a great artist. The poet's mastery of words is remarkable. All these poems reveal the concrete and artistic expression of the poet s various moods and thoughts in emotional and rhythmic language.

THE AUTHOR

Poetry to Uma is a means of relating to herself and her environment -- a conversation she uses to address the subtle and the unheard, a canvas to paint the extraordinary in the day to day. While a number of her poems have been published in online journals and magazines this is the first book of her collection.
