About the Book

The collection of poems in this book is varied, just like our lives are different from each other’s. Each poem talks about things that are present in the universe; things some people notice while others overlook. The verses in this book speak with the voice of the soul and bring out the inner message with great intensity. There are poems about nature, the great gift God has bestowed upon humankind and then there are poems about life, separation, emptiness, happiness and love. The words used are simple; the language refined and yet, touching. This book brings out the author’s interpretation of things and changes them into images that stare out from the pages of the book.
