My Rating: ☆☆☆☆
There is nothing in this world except soulful poetry, which cheers me up instantly.
Hindi poetry is always something that I cherish immensely. And when love is in the air, it’s a joy to read poems filled with love.
First, I will talk of talk of cover. Its cover is simple yet alluring, which piqued the interest of reader to pick this book up.
This book is divided into seven sections. Each section has different types of poems.
This book is divided into seven sections. Each section has different types of poems. In Us ki chah, the poems are filled with love and joy. In Us se doori, the poems talks of longing and separation.
Khud ki chah talks of talking with one’s inner self. Apno ki chah, Duniya se Chah, Logo se Chah, Us ka Khyal are some other parts, which narrate different kind of poems.
Each poem conveys different theme and different aspect of life.
Some poems deeply touched my heart. I really liked the two-liner and four-liner poems.

I read and re read some poems and going to read it again. I am quoting two lines from this collection :
Kitna acha ahsas hota hai na,
Jab koi humesa hamare sath hota hai na
An amazing read!
