My first trip to India was in the autumn of 1975.
I had just finished school that Spring.
Soon after arriving I became very ill and returned
to England. The following year I went back.
This time I stayed for six months.
In 1977 I again returned to stay for four months.
Ten years later I would be back December, January time
These poems relate some scenes and events.
Witnessed and experienced.
The reason for writing these words is an attempt
to re-create a moment in time … to make real
a memory.
