.....and I still mesmerize the days that I have SEEN YOU on performances in The Netherlands. I regretted and still regret that I have not asked you for a signature or made a chat the days that you were present in The Netherlands. BUT I am also a very shy person. I still see you dancing graciously. When I see you dancing, you took me to another realm, my dear poetess. WOW! My Dr. Geeta I have seen her personally.Thank you dear God.

Another of my favorite poets, Geeta, who in his best known poems had the wisdom to be pithy—pithy but powerful and easy to memorize. Yes, let us hold fast to dreams. This is what I wish for and admire for my son and daughter-in-law and granddaughter and all people—but especially the young just making their way in life. -Glen

An exceptionally beautiful review of the poem (Dreams) as well as an Ode to its composer Langston Hughes. As you have admitted to its impact, the poem must have inspired innumerable other readers since it was published long back. Thank you very much, Geeta ji, for this Ode and this series.

An outstanding tribute paid to the classic poet Langston Hughes and his inspirational poem on the role of dreams in shaping the destiny of human beings. The inspiration drawn from it that helped in motivating you to shift the art medium from dance to poetry with equal proficiency and ease at appropriate timing in life is quite laudable.

Your background in dance and song truly flowers through your poetry; such a creative harmonic naturally organized core soars through your poetry- reminding us of and celebrating the simplistic and the complex. Once again, thank you for your lovely poetry! Waking my day up with flowers and butterflies!
