In flowering, each verse unfurls like the tender petals of a bloom, inviting you to wander through a garden of emotions as wild and unpredictable as nature itself. This collection of poetry is a delicate dance between light and shadow, capturing the fragile beauty of growth, the ache of transformation, and the quiet wonder of renewal.
Through vivid, natural imagery, these poems reflect on heartbreak turning into wisdom and pain transforming into resilience. The language flows like a river beneath moonlit skies—lyrical, haunting, and steeped in the magic of the world around us. Readers are gently guided through seasons of love, loss, and the in-between moments, as each piece lingers like a whispered secret in the air.
Flowering reminds us that, like flowers, we each have our own rhythm, blooming in our time, rising and falling with the tides of life. There is beauty in the ephemeral, in the scars left behind, and in the tender rebirth that follows.
Let these poems carry you into the depths of your heart’s own garden, where every bloom, no matter how brief, leaves its mark on the soul.
Advita Mundhra
Advita Mundhra is a 17-year-old poet and writer from Mumbai, India, whose love for words has shaped her journey from a young age. Her debut poetry collection is a delicate exploration of growth, healing, and transformation, using nature as a powerful metaphor for the human experience. Her work has been featured in The Cathedralite, where she served as Head Editor for its first student-run edition, guiding the magazine to capture the voices and creativity of her peers.
Deeply passionate about both literature and music, Advita finds inspiration in a wide range of artistic influences—from the magical worlds of Harry Potter and Christopher Paolini's Inheritance Cycle, to the emotional depth of musicals like The Phantom of the Opera and Hamilton. Music plays an essential role in her life, and she draws from the likes of Whitney Houston, Celine Dion, and Bruno Mars to fuel her creative spirit.
When she’s not writing or lost in a bookshop, you can find Advita enjoying a bowl of ramen or sipping a cup of steaming oat-milk coffee, wrapped in a thick blanket, soaking in the beauty of a well-loved novel. With a deep appreciation for self-expression and storytelling, she hopes her poetry resonates with readers, guiding them through their own journeys of reflection and self-discovery.
