Review:

‘Hold on to life as you did today

There is a difference between indifference and detachment 

Be detached to the sorrow and indifferent to the apprehension of pain.’

from the Book – Silent Verses by Karanbir Singh

Poetry has been love and I ended my week reading this beautiful poetry book by Karanbir Singh. My book 124 of 2023 is a delightful, heart-warming read that you can count on.

As impressive as the cover is, Silent Verses by Karanbir Singh is a mesmerizing collection of poetry that effortlessly weaves emotions, experiences, and reflections into a tapestry of words. With each turn of the page, readers will find themselves immersed in the beautiful world he creates.

In these 25 poems, Delve into the themes of love, family, existence and journey as we witness a beautiful story in each poem along with unique illustrations. The illustrations add an extra layer of depth, making readers feel more connected to the poems. The poems not only explore these themes but also offer a unique perspective that prompts readers to reflect on their own lives.

Karanbir’s writing style is enchanting, drawing readers into a realm where the boundaries between the verses and their own emotions blur. Each poem is deep and is beautiful in its own, giving the reader a unique experience. The simplicity in his words makes this book more relatable.

Some poems will remind you of love, while some will remind you of the loss, some will remind you of the beauty of life and some will remind you to not give up. The poems based on family are my favourite ones as Karanvir talks about the bond we share with our parents. Those poems are forever imprinted in my heart. My favourites apart from family part is The beauty of a fleeting moment.

The poems are a bit longer than usual and a bit dense at times they strike a chord and draw us emotionally. Through these poems, he asks us to reflect on – What is love and life without effort? Live it, experience it, feel it and enjoy every single moment making it more and more beautiful. Karanbir’s work invites us to ponder the essence of love and life through every line.

In all, If you’re a poetry enthusiast seeking a read that resonates deeply and stays with you long after the last page, Silent Verses is a must-read that will leave an indelible mark on your heart and mind.
