a visit across decades
the seventh edition of the cherita : your storybook journal
edited by ai li

Our December edition of the journal edited by ai li, has 77 fine cherita written by poets who hail from India, UK, USA, Singapore, West Africa, Canada and Australia. We are again showcasing a collaborative cherita between two poets. The flexibility of the cherita genre continues to surprise and amaze me. Thank you all for helping me celebrate its versatility.

Thank you too to everyone who made this edition possible by so generously contributing their fine cherita to this end of year edition.

I hope you will enjoy all the stories within as much as I have enjoyed collating and placing them where they not only shine, but also highlight the talents of their respective writers.

Here is an example from the book :-

is it true or not

the word that slipped
before you fell asleep?

I tucked it carefully
under my pillow
all through winter
