About This Author
My name is Joy, and I love to write. Why poetry, here? Because poetry uplifts its writer, and if she is lucky enough, her readers, too. Around us, so many objects abound to write about. Once a poet starts with a smallest, most trivial object, he shall discover that his pen will spill out what is most delicate or most majestic hidden inside him. Since the classics sometimes dealt with lofty subjects with a lofty language, a person with poetry in his soul may incline to emulate that. That is understandable. Poetry does that to a person: it enlarges the soul and gives it wings. Yet, to really soar, a poet needs to take off from the ground. Kiya's gift. I love it!

Crowning what?
Prompt: True Crowning Moments: Character, Choices, Courage, Compassion. Do you think the world will remember you by these crowning moments in your life?

Possibly, none of the above since consciously, I never was single-mindedly obsessed to attain any one of those virtues mentioned. I rather worked toward an overall vision for myself. Have I made a difference? Maybe so, maybe not. This unknowing is because our planet is a crowded place and what one can do, even at her utmost, is only a drop in the ocean, and also, after me, I want the world to go on without looking back at what was.

There are some moments in my life, however, that have been important to me, and they include some fantastic people I have admired and the wonderful personal relationships or work affiliations I have had with them. Those moments are mine and they’ll stay mine. Only a few people are aware of some of them, and from where I stand, that’s a few people too many. What I have achieved, if those were an achievement, I like to keep them unseen and unmentioned.
