We were beaming the day we published our first anniversary issue. Honestly, all through the first year, ever since we dreamt up Spark, we had waited for this one moment – when we would hit the publish button of our first anniversary issue. It felt great and special. One year indeed was an achievement for us and we celebrated the occasion by moving to our own domain, stepping up the magazine’s look and bettering navigation and sharing options. We also featured four very inspiring stories of organisations and initiatives like ours that thrive purely out of passion.
agitated dust of tea, seething in water, a tandav, of fury.
a flight of steps, a sip to see colours, an illusion, of calm.
monster brown, fleeing from my cup, to spill, some fear.
a flight to soar, wings from the liquid, a sudden squirt, of imagination.
marks it leaves, cup after cup, one after another the doors, open.
breeze and music, voice of a madman, a pen to scribble a note, of romance.
a word to fetter, to beckon from routine, a cosy cuppa, of lure.
