At times its difficult to express one's inner most feelings but when poured out the words form poetry . The poetry book " Deep In My Heart " takes you to a different realm . "Although it was only through this slim volume that I have been introduced to Alka Narula's poetry, I understand she contributed to anthologies in the past, and this explains the maturity of her writing; the brevity of her expression (for brevity is the essence of poetry); the sincerity of her emotions; and the courage with which she lets us enter into the privacy of her personal life. She has clearly known both joy and sorrow, and both are her Muse. She writes when she is in the depths and soars when times are better. "Authentic" is the word I am looking for to describe the quality of her voice" Mani Shankar Aiyar (RSMP INDIA)
