# Conspicuous By Its Absence Comments

I had read this poem earlier and I feel very happy and delighted to read it all over again! Because each time I see a good painting or read a poem, I discover something NEW all over again! We have heard of Grandmother's recipe, here comes a Mother's Philosophy of Life itself - in the wisdom of those last two lines! 10++++ -Raj Nandy

Very true Mamta, plants and relationships always need love and nurture and no doubt, they have uncertain future. A very fine touch of sensibility is the theme of this poem.

‘Relation Upholding’ and ‘Plant Breeding’ Hum… wonderful comparison I enjoyed the essence of it. As sweet pea grows with support Relation thrives with rapport Still… There are plants those support themselves. But… Are there relations which stand by themselves? ! Also its a truth.. The seed of Sweet pea is poisonous But it has vibrant colour Sweet fragrance... Just to take care that The seeds are not eaten. There are relations with such seeds But how much care do we take To discard those seeds...! ! ! Thank you. Very Good one.

Stunning imagery. Beautiful poem 'guldastha'

very true plants or humans all need love and nurturing a lovely write Mamta surely a 10++++ regards anjali

A virtue of absence is not an evidence of love prevalence....but a reality of unfulfil love.Excellent rhyming Mamta!

What a beautiful comparison between the two! A good philosophical ending in verse, - thank you! 10! - Raj Nandy
