"It was a very emotional and enjoyable experience and I don’t think that the event could have been better. I read from the heart and not from a book."

“The Middle East has always demonstrated a rich literary culture with poetry remaining an integral part of its tradition. The strong cultural diversity in the region warrants the need to encourage art in all forms.” He added,” The poetry symposium creates an ideal platform that stimulates the multi-cultural talent present within the UAE fabric. Furthermore, it is well-aligned with SGI Gulf’s vision to promote peace, cultural understanding and humane values through education.”

The “Poetic Heart “is an experience even more enthralling than what she had imagined with students reciting, even young determined ones coming on stage is totally amazing. Everyone is involved in the event and are totally committed towards poetry and feels this event is moving in the right direction with a beautiful vision.

"I was pleasantly surprised with the professional way the organizers treated me and made every moment feel special and nice. It is kind of an example for other groups doing the same thing."

"Poetic Heart was a pleasurable experience for me and even though I didn’t understand some languages, I tried to read the poets face and expressions and get a sense of the poetry. She complimented the team as very professional as they ensured all guests were comfortable and taken care of."
