Shiksha Dheda

I read Because I could not stop for Death by Emily Dickinson and spent the rest of the day in deep thought and solitude pondering about the creative technicalities of the poem. I procrastinated all my other pending tasks and assessments due to this 'session of sweet silent thought'.

I scraped a pass in the mathematics test the following day, and was almost asked to leave class as I did not complete homework.

I do not only write poetry because it gives me immense satisfaction to see intricate, complex human thoughts written in a simple length of writing, but also because I want to make another teenager almost leave the class for pondering over my poems instead of doing their homework.

Forward Poetry's ethos has always been to act as a bridge to publication rather than a barrier. This, along with our passion for poetry and creative writing, has seen a humble family business evolve into the biggest publisher of new poetry in the world. We understand that poetry is subjective, that everyone writes in a different style and that what one person can love, another can hate! Our collections showcase a variety of themes, writing styles and poets from all walks of life. They are carefully edited and compiled to celebrate and complement the craft that all of our contributors enjoy poetry.
