Rest in Peace!Dear Astha

Dear friends, some of you might know about the sudden demise of our dear Co-blogger,our friend Astha Srivastava. She lost her battle against Covid on 30th April 2021.

I really enjoyed reading her poems,she was such an amazing blogger! This is a great loss to our blogging community. My heart goes to her family members who are finding it difficult to cope the loss of Astha and her dear mother. Please check out her beautiful poems here.

Tribute to our dear Asta 👇

An amazing friend she was
Our heart’s couldn’t bear her loss!
She was full of life and a beautiful girl
All her poems were like heavenly pearl!

The shock and pain is resisting to fade
Though we know that the fate has played!
Some battles are to lose
Yet to believe, we still refuse!

Your loss filled us with silent scream
And we wish, if this was all a dream!
Our heart bleeds with so much pain
To think, that we can’t meet again!

As the tears roll down our face
We know you are in a better place!
We learnt that God plucks the very best
To be with him, forever to rest!

  4. This is such a beautiful poem and tribute to our dear friend Astha Preeths❣️ I too am sooo sad and can’t really believe it and think about her family. She had such a great heart which she shared so freely. Her writing was poingent and fun and her messages were always so heartfelt. Thank you for featuring her blog so her family knows how love she was and how much she loved her mother that sadly left this earthly world as well. I am looking forward to hopefully the release of her Anthology. I tried to email her and leave a message for her family. love to you Preeths and all you do. 💖💓💓💓❣️❣️

  8. Such a loss! A very promising and productive young woman. I enjoyed Astha’s lovely, positive work. Her last poem was about falling in love. I am sure she leaves a grieving family, friends, students, and fellow bloggers behind.

    Thank you, Preeths, for the beautiful tribute and for letting us know. ❤ Stay safe.

    I find this news so hard to accept, such a young, extremely clever, intelligent, highly educated woman, that India needs so badly. I am heartbroken
