DESCRIPTION |
|
| This is my first attempt at writing, that too in verse. I almost feel as if I am trespassing into a territory where even 'The Muse' would fear to tread. I am not an academician, neither do I pretend to have any claims at scholarship. Spread across the span of over half a century, these few poems have been taking form and expression in my mind, right from my childhood days up to the present time, and perhaps, are the result of my recollections, reflections, vague and uncertain conclusions, unanswered questions, dreams and nightmares, successes and failures, joys and sorrows, meetings and partings, and a host of other happenings over which one can exercise no conscious control, in the course of a life time. In some of the poems in this collection, I have expressed some doubts, and have tried to ask questions, about certain concepts and enumerated truths, as expounded in some of the living religions of the present day world, that I have not been able to comprehend or understand. I have done so in an attitude of humility as a seeker and a learner, with the utmost of respect and reverence for all the religious faiths, their divinities and their prophets. |
