About Me

Preethi: Two things have always intrigued me- Poetry & Nature and when the two join hands together it's Magical! One speaks for itself and the other yearns to be spoken about.Sometimes when you hold a pen in your hand, you have no clue what words to put to paper to translate what you feel yet other times you just blurt out the cacophony of thoughts that run through your head which at the end makes you realize how you actually feel...maybe they are just thoughts...maybe they are just the way i feel...maybe it's just me! Guess i am still figuring out the weirdness of it all....might even have an answer in a few light years time but till then this is a part of ME on a piece of e-paper! Sink in the weirdnesssss of my first love.....
