• Tanka Tuesday 26.3.24, Art Diaries : The girl in the yellow dress

  

  This week for the tanka tuesday challenge hosted by Colleen Chesebro, I’m writing a series of tanka. The weather is cool in Dhaka. It’s been raining and we’ve had thunderstorms, lightning and short bursts of rain. I used the kigo word ‘Birds enter clouds’. ‘Tranquil Dawn’ and ‘Holi’ which is the festival of colors celebrated…

• Dhaka Diaries : Tanka Tuesday, Art of the week, Thankful Thursday. Happy World Poetry Day!

  

  I wish I had a door to participate in the Thursday Doors Challenge. But I’m afraid I have none.

• Dhaka Diaries: Women’s Day- A trip to Old town

  

  What better way to celebrate Women’s day than with women friends. On March 8th, five of us decided to explore Old Dhaka- that part of town steeped in History. One friend proposed the trip and oiled the engine to get it going and her friend (who I did not know prior to the trip), agreed…

• Thursday 070324- Doors, flowers, reviews, gratitude and more

  

  I couldn’t share a post last Thursday for the ‘Thursday Doors’ challenge, hosted by Dan Antion, as I was at an exhibition of Benarasi silks held at the Le Meridien hotel in Dhaka. This was my first experience at such an exhibition and I needed a lot of coaxing to go for it. I’m glad…
