The kitchen is the heart of the house! And poetry is the heart of a poetic soul. Long back I wrote a piece with a poem on kitchen and got it published in my second poetry book, later on, I realised that I found poetry inside the kitchen in almost everything visible to my eyes, like in a bottle of jam, the colour of turmeric, tea cups and many other things. This only prompted me with the idea that I could surely turn this into a poetry project with the help of a larger group of poets. You get the drift, don’t you? Yes, this time the theme is something close to all of our hearts, ‘Poems from the Kitchen’. Before you start thinking with your creative hats, read some of the simple rules before submitting:
1. Only one entry per household, but any length of poem is acceptable.
