| Poem The face of my teacher - Sketch & poem: Ashwini Kaarthikeyan e-mail: ashwinikaarthikeyan@gmail.com January 10, 2013  When a man embraces his femininity, and dances with soft feet upon the red earth, he is a ‘caress’, personified. We are newborn offsprings, sprouting out after the first light in Spring. We hibernate for decades on end, and resurrect ourselves from thawing grounds. In each devoted dancer, I see the face of my teacher. (This poem is a response to the Bharatanatyam recital by Nartaki Natraj at The Music Academy, Chennai, on 9th January 2013. Ashwini Kaarthikeyan is a poet, artist and Bharatanatyam dancer.) www.facebook.com/ashwinipawarkaarthikeyan / www.artisdates.com |
