About this ebook

The book symbolizes the voice of unloved children of the world. Their cries are the authors cries, and the authors cries are their cries. It would be a great disservice if the sensitivity of their cries were not heard. The authors cries were just a flash in time, blip and forgotten. There are 125 poems, of which twenty-three are haiku and innumerable prose poems. Tweaking prose from prose poem, there is a fine line to define. Prose poem will remain uncounted.
