One More Line and Other Poems

The mark of a good poet is to sustain the theme within the poem's ambit and good poetry is never effusive in language. If it is to come alive it must be put together efficiently, organized naturally, say like a tree, whose every part serves a useful purpose and cooperates with every other part to preserve and express the life that is within it. Sujatha succeeds in that aspect quite effortlessly. Poems, like semi-transparent opal, flash out different colours when slowly turned in the light. Readers' understanding and receptivity must turn in that light to enjoy all the facets that her poems offer. –Ambika Ananth, Author, Poet, Journalist, Founder Editor of 'Muse India'.
