Vishal Dutia
In Mumbai town, a writer dwells,
The poems I tell,
With pen in hand, I bring to life,
Characters that inspire and strife.
Through my words, I take us on a ride,
To places we've never been inside,
May my writing continue to flow,
And my stories never cease to glow.

How to Test Love?
Testing love, an age-old question,Loved and pondered by generations.Is it in words or silent actions,That we truly gauge love’s passions? Is it in the grand gestures, the deeds so sublime,Or in the little things done time after time?Perhaps it’s in the way they look at...

When hate is poured as honey over love,It’s hard to see the venom in the sweet.A bitterness disguised as gentle dove,A poison hidden in a treat. The words that sting, the actions that offend,All sugar-coated with a smile so bright.Deceit and malice, hard to comprehend,When...
