Appropriate for students Grade 5 and higher and all literary enthusiasts. This is a preserved collection from 1968-1975 – the author's writings from 7th grade to just after high school – before entering college – and before coming to the United States. These poems helped the author win Best Poet of the Year awards from a local newspaper in Dhaka Bangladesh in 1973 and 1974. Some are poems, some songs, some just thoughts with a rhythmic pattern. The progression of a young mind from 7th grade to high school is apparent in the writings presented in chronological order. Here is a segment written in 1974: Evening crept into the day And mother's eyes were wet. I saw her move her lips and say, “Isn't it beautiful, to see the sun set?” Away from her, I turned my eyes And looked at the eastern sky, “Isn't it better, to see it rise?” I said, and I heard her cry.

Traverse the mind of my youth through these poems. Your entire family can enjoy reading or listening to this preserved collection of my writings from 1968-1975, from 7th grade to just after high school. Some are poems, some songs, some just thoughts with a rhythmic pattern. I believe these early writings helped me to develop an appreciation for the beauty and inspirational power of the English language and positively impacted my later books and writings. While revisiting these, I observed my use of liberal literary license and an active imagination. As I traversed through these pieces, after four decades, I noticed progressive improvement in my writing as I grew up and continued to learn, play, and experiment with the English language. In order for you to observe this transition, I have presented the pieces in chronological order. The original work remains preserved, either in my own handwriting, or in the imperfect typeface of a very old ribbon typewriter. Despite factual inaccuracies in some pieces, I minimized editing to preserve the integrity of the original writing. I now make a living teaching, speaking, writing, voice acting and coaching others to achieve success through leadership and personal branding. I bring a unique interdisciplinary perspective to any conference and my quotes, interviews, and citations appear in countless media and professional publications.
