Thank you new and old friends come to support this wonderful reading in Victoria, BC on April 25, 2026 . Special thanks to Kyeren Regehr, Planet Earth Poetry and Writers’ union of Canada
I am glad to attend Canada journal publication ceremony in Scarborough hosted by Subrata Kumar Das on May 1, 2026. I am happy to see my poems translated in Bengali. Please feel free to check the Celebration of Bengali and Canadian Literature event on the TV channel.
I had a wonderful trip to Victoria. I was interviewed by the multi-talented Kyeren Regehr for her Poet Laureate Podcast, and read for the renowned Planet Earth Poetry Reading Series alongside Phoebe Wang and rob mclennan at Russell Books.
I also met many wonderful poets, visited DC Reid’s home, and enjoyed dinner at Lorna Crozier’s beautiful place. So many good memories and wonderful photos. I even wrote a new poem, and was delighted that Charlie Smith shared it on both Pancouver and TorontoSpark.
We had a great time to celebrate Asian Heritage Month. Together we write haiku for Mother’s Day & for Mother Earth. Special thanks to Mount Pleasant Branch Toronto Public Library.
