Whispers in the Wind-The Poetry Whisperer is a collection of poetry that was written to be a source of inspiration. Poetry tells a story, and you will be delighted at the stories in this book that are written in an easy-to-understand style. This book offers hope and healing with insight into the world around us. I have written about our American heroes, nature, our losses, our tears, forgiveness to those who have hurt us, giving second chances (everyone deserves a second chance; give one or receive one), and whimsical writings for the lighthearted. I have also written about angels, God, Jesus, Easter, and Christmas. There is a little romance, poetry for wedding vows, and several tributes.

Poet, novelist, painter and musician, Rabindranath Tagore (1861-1941) is the grand master of Bengali culture. Written during the 1890s, the stories in this selection brilliantly recreate vivid images of Bengali life and landscapes in their depiction of peasantry and gentry, casteism, corrupt officialdom and dehumanizing poverty. Yet Tagore is first and foremost India's supreme Romantic poet, and in these stories he can be seen reaching beyond mere documentary realism towards his own profoundly original vision.
