7) I regret that I missed this masterpiece so long. Bharati had published it on February 18. PoemHunter does not announce new poems of such great poets on the homepage anymore! This is wrong. I just searched Bharati's page for new poems and chanced upon this marvel

6) "the caravan and the desert merge" into ‘one soul". Wow! These two lines showcase the talent of Bharati. I need not say more. Five stars and onto MyFavourites.

5) The child hands back her magic wand to the mature poet Bharati in the last stanza: " The caravan and the desert Will merge and become one soul." inimitable closing of this marvellous movie of a poem. For, I could visualise the flow of images as in movie

4) " As the darkness becomes pitch dark"…when the night takes over, the child imagines that the caravan will rest for the day…in the vast deserts of the night-sky..

3) ‘Does the desert wing sing a song? '..we almost hear it in the songs of birds returning to their rooster…This child in the poet sings along with them. I am overwhelmed, Bharati..

2) .. in the evening skies, with colourful clouds parade in the slow evening breeze. The metaphors conjure up the image of a caravan on camels in a desert. The child in the poet exhilarates in this imagery.

1) An excellent poem! The flow of images, words and colours make it brilliant! In the heart of every poet, a child continues to exist. In this poem, the child in Bharati perceives the silhouette of a desert caravan in the evening skies..

Beautiful poetry. An excellent write about life in a desert. Enjoyed thoroughly. Thanks.
