Book Description

The book is a collection of sixteen poems, mostly, in blank verse form. I have penetrated deeply into the present contemporary life in its diversified form. Poetry is the best way to express and expose the current trends of social setup.

I have tried to put my childhood days, when I passed my life in village watching natural treasure in its various movements. A minutely observation has been portrayed from the village life. The use of imagery and symbols, makes the scenic description vivid.

On the other hand, I have tried to portray the unnecessary, humorous, showbiz set-up of modern society. Fashionetta, Boss culture, humour over withering age and, sadly, religious bigotry have been attacked under mild criticism.

I have taken inspiration of humour satire and irony from Legendary poet, the father of English poetry Jeoffery Chaucer.
