DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis is my second attempt to take a test as a poet from my august readers. My first 50 poems were published in 2014 with the title Emotional Savings. Like the first one, this book of poems also contains another 50 poems. In this, the reflection of poetic contents is different and full of varieties- may be the outcome of a sensible human being, especially as a common man. The delicate observations and emotional feelings have been associated with different moods and modalities of the cross-currents of human life. Some poems like ’God and Government’, ’If God Meets Each of Us’ have moral and spiritual flavour whereas some others like ’The Mystic Minstrel’, ’Village Drama’, ’Dance of Odissi’ have typical cultural backdrop. Some other poems such as ’Pet Dog’ and ’The Princess and the Cowherd Boy’ are bit ironical, philosophical and based on the instances of typical themes aiming at dragging the attention of the readers towards some of the nostalgic reminiscences as well as the realities of life. However, let alone the response of the readers to be relied on.
