"Stepwell" by Azura Tyabji

Seattle, 2019

When Azura won the prestigious title of Youth Poet Lauriate for Seattle in 2018, she was presented with a substantial dollar prize and the opportunity to publish a book of her poetry. After her 2019 visit to India and tour of Rajasthan, where she saw the awesome stepwell in Jodhpur city, she decided to name the book Stepwell (click to download).

Azura has performed dozens of times under the banner of Youth Speaks and you can view these performances on YouTube. Here is an example (click to view).
