To begin with the June 2021 edition of Taj Mahal Review, it is necessary to state that the journal provides immense aesthetic pleasure to all readers across the world. Its principle is : to publish only original poems, haiku, short story, critical reviews, etc. It is quite disappointing to point out so many deaths due to a global outbreak of the pandemic coronavirus. “The most recent common ancestor (MRCA) of all coronaviruses is estimated to have existed as recently as 8000 BCE, although some models place the common ancestor as far back as 55 million years or more.” No doubt, destruction of our ecosystems is quite responsible for the outbreak of infectious diseases.
Various academic researches have shown that deforestation and loss of wild life lead to several pandemics. Wordsworth is quite right in lamenting the fact that we are now strangers to “Spontaneous wisdom breathed by health”. This is quite painful and bitterly disappointing to see such a large number of coronavirus victims from all walks of life across the world. I and Karunesh Kumar Agarwal along with all staff members pray that God may grant peace and consolation to all bereaved families. It is my humble duty to thank all poets and short story writers whose best writings are published in this latest TMR edition. I am highly indebted and grateful to all international authors for their kind cooperation and help to make publication of the June 2021 issue of Taj Mahal Review possible.

Warm Greetings to all creative artists including poets, short story writers published in this latest edition of Taj Mahal Review. Welcome to the June 2020 edition of Taj Mahal Review. I am quite thankful and indebted to all authors across the globe published in this issue.
The latest issue of TMR features haiku, poems, book reviews, short stories and several other interesting things.
No doubt, the world of poetry opens the door to the divine sanctuary. The poems and haiku included in this edition reveal a remarkable lyrical intensity. Some of these masterpieces written in a simple style full of cadence and simple harmony will certainly attract all readers due to their spontaneous way of composing and vivid power of imagination.
It is really very sad and tragic that due to dangerous coronavirus an increasingly large number of people have died. It is true that our beloved earth has suffered a lot due to our greed and cruelty toward plants and nature. We have failed to experience the 'ancient rapture' in the world of nature.

The December 2019 issue of TMR features some of the best modern and postmodern poets across the globe. The latest issue includes some magnificent poems and haiku devoid of banal epithets and any type of false elegance. In this newest edition of the journal, we will find other interesting features: artwork, literary criticism and book reviews. It is beyond comprehension why a few writers criticize poetry. It is not possible to agree with the view that we should 'shut our eyes to poets and pipers'. It will be good if we peruse Defence of Poetry by Sir Philip Sidney. In this famous work Sidney "analyses the very inner essence of poetry and the reason of its existence,—its development from, and operation on, the mind of man". Philip Sidney aptly remarks that poetry is better than philosophy and history: "The poet is the food for the tenderest stomachs, the poet is indeed the right popular philosopher.Essentially, poetry shows history more brilliantly than history, and explains philosophy more cogently than philosophy." It is good to remember that Buddha's middle path philosophy is quite prudent and wise for our contemporary world afflicted with violence and brutality. The great Roman poet Ovid aptly says:
I caution you to keep

The June 2019 issue of Taj Mahal Review presents some of the best contemporary writings by poets and creative artists across the globe. The fact is that the latest journal includes not only quite attractive poetry, short story and book reviews, but also remarkable haiku by international poets. The poems and haiku selected for publication in this newest edition of TMR undoubtedly reveal rare and precious quality of spontaneity and emotional depth. It may be be added that great poetry has a highly attractive quality of simplicity blended with intensity of emotions as visible in the following immortal lines by the great American poet Robert Frost, winner of four Pulitzer Prizes:
I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I —
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.
The fact is that a poet is ‘a winged and a holy thing’, and there is no poetry in him until he has been inspired by the beauty and power within his own innermost self. The inner vision enables John Milton to write such immortal poetry:
Virtue could see to do what Virtue would
By her own radiant light, though sun and moon
Were in the flat sea sunk. And Wisdom's self
Oft seeks to sweet retired solitude,
Where, with her best nurse Contemplation,
She plumes her feathers, and lets grow her wings.
Milton is quite right when he says that only inner light can nourish and instruct us, and illumine our path and lift our soul to the sublime standard of perfection. The following lines reveal a great lesson for our postmodern world afflicted with violence and chaos:
He that has light within his own clear breast
May sit i' th' centre and enjoy bright day;
But he that hides a dark soul and foul thoughts
Benighted walks under the midday sun
I make grateful acknowledgement to all creative artists including poets and short story writers, whose poems, short stories and haiku are published in this edition of TMR. It is quite true that without your kind cooperation and gracious support it was not possible to publish the June 2019 edition of TMR. Best Wishes.

Happy New Year. The latest issue of TMR reveals that the poems and haiku selected for publication in this issue are full of ease and variety, and never tend to monotony. In the poems, haiku and short story included in this edition, we find a wonderful union of intellectual power and creative power. The Dec 2018 issue of TMR reveals altogether quite attractive features: poems, haiku, short story, book review and many other interesting things. Edgar Allan Poe aptly remarks that a great poem elevates the reader's soul: " I need scarcely observe that a poem deserves its title only in as much as it excites, by elevating the soul. The value of the poem is in the ratio of this elevating excitement. But all excitements are, through a psychal necessity, transient. That degree of excitement which would entitle a poem to be so called at all, cannot be sustained throughout a composition of any great length. After the lapse of half an hour, at the very utmost, it flags—fails—a revulsion ensues—and then the poem is, in effect, and in fact, no longer such."
