Shine in Lowland

Shine in Lowland

Nabilah’s ‘SHINE IN LOWLAND’ is a brilliantly crafted collection of poems that transcends the barriers of nation states and appeals to the poetry loving people around the world. The beautifully conceived collection directly converses with the changing sensibility of the readers of different generations. Her poems stand apart with their nobility of thoughts, originality of images, beauty of stylistic narration, depth of insights and the vastness of farsightedness. The collection makes a good read and takes the readers to a higher realm of sensibility, and unscaled heights of experiences. The poet has her own unique ways of expressing what she sees behind common sights and what she conceives beyond the ordinary level of conception. She dwells on a wide range of topics and comes out in flying colours, churning the complexities of human predicament. She makes use of a poetical language which filters and heightens the current language and beautifies it with the sporadic sprinkling of the subtle nuances of verses and striking images. It seems she is convinced about the therapeutic value of poesy and she successfully employs a plethora of innovative images that pacify the bruised souls to a great extent. The serene mind of the poet gets truly reflected in what she scribbles down! Her concern about humaneness, which is being done away with at a faster pace deserves special mention. She seeks to measure the distance between a homosapien and a human being and the distance gets marked in her poems in its totality. _FOREWORD BY PRABHA VARMA
