My Poetry, My Voice: An Anthology of English, Karbi and Assamese Poems

Poetry is finest because it is purest; it is purest in that it appeals to five senses that send external impressions/perceptions in order to be churned by mind, heart and soul. Great poetry has the capacity to purify and ennoble human beings.
-Dr. B. C. Dash, Dept. of English, AUDC
