Social Media Shares of Excerpts from Suman Pokhrel's Works [Part IV]

Social Media Shares of Excerpts from My Works Part IV


I’m deeply grateful that my words have resonated with readers from all walks of life. Over time, many of my verses have been shared, cited, or referenced across social media, blogs, newspapers, academic publications, and more.

In this post, I have gathered examples of my work shared on social media, together with the original titles and, where applicable, links to the corresponding pieces. In instances where a link is absent, I will provide an appropriate reference at a later time, as works published in print cannot be directly linked. I hope this compilation assists readers in tracing each line back to its source. This is the 4th installment in a series, presented in multiple parts due to Goodreads’ character limits. The other parts can be found at the links below:
