Oasis Musings in Solitude

Alice Jomy is now making a debut as a poet by publishing OASIS, a collection of her poems. Alice says that as an ordinary homemaker,she didn't have anything significant in her life to become a creative writer. Born in 1952 in Kottayam ,married in 1974 flying to Ethiopia to join her husband Jomy Kuriakose in 1975 , blessed with three children and a brief career as a teacher in Nigeria , Alice couldn't dream of giving wings to her thoughts and ideas.....Back home to Kerala, again she shut out her great passion for English and literature. Misfortunes come and go, but life also holds surprises under its fold. A brief notification in the news paper announcing a meeting of 'Aksharasthree,The Literary Woman' in the year 2016 was indeed a breakthrough. Thanks to all those who are taking steps to publish the book 'Oasis' . This will make her cherished dream come true, her silent wish to be an author ever since she has joined 'Aksharasthree'. Alice as a writer is able to look into what is within herself, look back at the filaments of life , deal with love, loss, lamentations of the soul and find solace by rising on the wings of fancy. She finds peace and cheer in the oasis it offers. May the verses penned by Alice Jomy provide every reader a poetic delight.
