This candle also features a poem written by the talented, Godhuli Chatterjee Gupta.
Godhuli is a Chicago-based Indian-American writer and the author of Desert Marigold, an Amazon bestselling poetry collection. Her work explores the trials of motherhood, the South Asian immigrant experience, cultural duality, and the process of reclaiming identity. A former "third culture kid" who grew up in six countries, Godhuli brings a rich, global perspective to her writing -- infusing every line with deep emotional resonance.
Now a mother of two raising her family in the Chicago suburbs, she continues to share her journey through poetry that speaks to the heart.
A portion of all proceeds from the sale of this candle will be donated to the South Asian American Digital Archive (SAADA)
