Seasons of Love : From Heartbreak to Healing,One Season at a Time by Mamata Sampath
3.25
Seasons of Love by Mamata Sampath is a collection of poems and reflections by the poet about love, loss, longing, hope and belonging. The poet very creatively reimagined the phases of love in heartbreak, healing and hope as seasons of surrounding in winter, spring-summer, and autumn.
The first part - Winter: Echoes of a Broken Heart beautifully captures the coldness that heartbreak brings into one's life. It shows the readers the power of love and at the same time how that power when manipulated questions the foundation of it. The emotions are raw and real and it's my favourite part of this collection.
The second part - Spring-Summer: Healing with Hope dives deeper into finding one's place in life and rediscovering the joy of love. It talks about grief, anger, hurt and at the same time hope! But with most of the poems having similes, it feels underwhelming and I would have appreciated it if it had explored the emotions in more depth.
The third part - Autumn: Fated Hearts paves the way for love again in life. It shows the power of positive relationships. It reflects how people are different from each other and yet can find a way to love each other in tandem.
The little illustrations in between make the poems more beautiful. Though the first part overpowers the next two underwhelming parts, it's a heartwarming collection. Overall, it's a good collection with great conceptualization and can be easily read in a day.
