\n Editorial Note \u2013 Issue 1\n<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

\n Welcome to the inaugural issue of The Bougainvillea Journal \ud83c\udf38\n <\/p>\n

\nSpring has arrived and slowly, steadily we will step into summers. Flowers are blooming, skies are clear yet the chaos at present in world can feel overwhelming!\n

\n<\/p>\nAs we know, literature has always been a mirror to us of society, of our own selves as well as one of the greatest solace for humanity. It opens the door to possibilities, dreams, and often the much-needed warmth and peace we seek.\n

\n<\/p>\nWith this journal, I hope to take a small step forward with a vision of warmth, love, and optimism as what the world of literature and arts have always been for me. \n<\/p>\n

\nIn this marigold-themed issue there is a special small haiku bouquet of marigolds for you, honoring the lovely flowers existing around us in all forms of joy, love and grief, connoting different shades of memories and moments. \n<\/p>\n

\n And also, do read the wonderful literary reflections at the end with this issue. Such extraordinary, beautiful writing. \n <\/p>\n

\n I am grateful to each one of you for trusting me with your beautiful work. May these poems offer space to dwell for a moment when life feels too fleeting. \n <\/p>\n\n
