A dazzling collection of poetry, full of beauty and grace.' - Sonia Faleiro, author
We see words becoming dance in Jaya's poetry'-  Leo Spreksel, Artistic director, Korzo Festival, Netherlands
'In these poems, the colours, images, elements, rhythm and the flow of nature, the spins, swirls and ecstatic movements of the dancer become the poem, in which the meaning is dance itself.' - H S Shivaprakash, Kannada poet and playwright

' These poems will inspire everyone to listen to themselves and to the world around them.’ - Sayantani Dasgupta, author
Art becomes life
seasons the stage
trees and flowers conspire
till every art mingles,
to lose itself,
in the heart of the human.

Just like the silk saree that evokes jewel-like emotions within its wearer, Jaya Mehta brings a rich and sumptuous feel to poetry in the Poetic Saree. The poems in this collection explore the moods and themes of Indian art, the delights of nature and the landscape of the heart.
Performed at the India Dance Festival in Netherlands, published by the Levure Litteraire, and filmed as videos in the 'Poetic Saree project', these poems have already leapt off the written page.
