I say it's coffee that flows through me. This week's Blogchatter Blog Hop is a delight for a coffee-fueled soul like me. Come, let's talk over a steaming mug of coffee.

There's no black-n-white when it comes to life, or a relationship. Here's my take on this thought in form of a Marathi free verse.

To begin again

Adi Sathe — Thu, 17 Jul 2025 06:19:19 +0000

It's hard to turn the last page and begin again right away. But you have no choice but to accept the end of a relationship. You know, every journey has a destination. But I knew this when I took that first step. There's no "... happily ever after" here.

An ode to the god of words – Bakibab

Adi Sathe — Thu, 10 Jul 2025 06:35:37 +0000

I feel fortunate to have studied in my mother tongue, Marathi. Though I didn’t appreciate it in school, it later led me to literary gems like Bakibab Borkar. His evocative tribute to Goa, written in the traditional Ovi form, resonates deeply—especially today, on his death anniversary.

Read on to see what’s next.

Khdiki || a Hindi poem | खिड़की || हिन्दी कविता |

Adi Sathe — Mon, 17 Feb 2025 13:30:05 +0000

खिड़की (Khidki) is one of my poems that reflects on our tendency to see the world through narrow perspectives, often through filters of our choice. Inspired by a painting by Snehal Ekbote, this piece challenges the way we perceive reality.
I’d love for you to read it & share your thoughts!

Poets are always called heartbroken. Yes, sorrow is a powerful emotion, but not every good poem happens when you're sad. But, then how does it happen?
