Thanx Ivan the new website is very beautiful & its serene eloquence is most welcoming to our world weary souls ! Chaikhana has always been my favourite to catch a quick sip of mental calm & carry the thought process it evokes into daily life. Thanks again for your many hours of tireless labour for our greater good !!

Well done Ivan! your new website is very easy to follow ,most inviting, and so rich. I love Chaikhana Poetry and open it every morning first thing in my “quiet time” . It brings me in and sets the scene for my day. I have passed it on to many people..it’s for sharing. Thank you. Cynthia.

Bravo! I love the new images and appearance. It’s fabulous you took an existing template and tweaked it. I don’t know how you manage to do this time-intensive labor of love, but we, your readers, sure appreciate it. I am remiss in getting my proofing back to you in a timely manner. Tomorrow it will happen.

My only issue is that the text is too wide for the screen, and I have to use the arrows to read the right edge (this could be just the system I’m working on). Otherwise, lovely! Here’s one of my song lyrics.

I used to think that beauty was my hair
My eyes my lips
My hips
What clothes to wear
But then I learned
And my vision burned
At the beauty everywhere

I once thought steps went either up
Or down
I never knew there was a
Middle ground
But then I found
All this different sound
Had been playing all around

We’ve got to open our eyes to see
All this wonderful diversity
We’ve got to open our minds to find
The possibilities
Of our destinies

I used to think we never could depart
From bad or good
Our nature
From the start
But then I learned
Through pain I earned
This sympathetic heart

Good morning Ivan,

Yes I have been enjoying the full moon. I believe the website is lovely. Beautiful
photograph and space abounds, sacred space. I go on overload with much internet
material. The Warbler is a great poem to begin.

I never dreamed when I found Poetry Chaikhana a couple years ago that I would
grow to love it as I do. Thank you for sharing your work, your knowledge, and
helping us grow
