    About this ebook

    This book is an exposition of how words, in whatever forms they have been employedbe it spoken, written, or sunghave either transformed the world on a large-scale positive way or ruined very little but significant situations and have gone to express these strung words in the poetic form!

    For easy read, it has been themed along various important aspects of the human interests. On a large perspective, it is a kind of invitation to muse along as the reader flips through the pages.

    There is great expectation it should be a delight and occupy a place of its own on the shelf.
