“Cold Rain & Nostalgia” by Krishna Bhaskar is a poetic stroll through memory lane, where ordinary things carry extraordinary warmth. It’s a cozy, rain-soaked hug wrapped in denim, driveway cracks, and the scent of old coffee.
Those jeans I felt confident in
That old house on Cotton Gin
My favorite dark green coffee mug
My cracked driveway and my black truck
Old Johnny would say most funny things
While the orange cat would chew on that orange trim
Krishna Bhaskar is a storyteller at heart and a seeker by soul. Born and raised in India before settling in Texas in his early twenties, he embodies a rich blend of cultures. For nearly three decades, Texas has been home—reflected in his love for Tex-Mex, small-town BBQ hunts, and his ever-present western boots.A gifted writer and actor, Krishna’s creative work spans short stories, poems, songs, and screenplays in both English and Hindi. His writing draws from real moments and personal introspection, making his stories deeply intimate yet universally relatable. On stage, he brings the same authenticity and emotional depth, creating an instant sense of connection with his audience.Blending wisdom with warmth, Krishna Bhaskar reminds us that intellect and boots do go darn good together.
