    About this ebook

    A collection of moving poems meant to make readers ponder on things. Inspired by the Author's experiences and views in life.
    Endorsements
    The poems are strong, and what I found particularly compelling in them is the way that they make the world of myth and folktales interact with the real world, so that each seems to breach the boundaries of the other: the effect is disturbing, thought-provoking.
    Dr. Noam Scheindlin, Poetry Editor of Warscapes Magazine and Professor of Comparative Literature in the English Department at LaGuardia Community College, City University of New York, USA
    These poems are superbly constructed/crafted, beautifully embroidered, skillfully latticed. The shade they create offers shelter and solace to the inquisitive mind. The language is luxuriant, seductive, and mythopoeic.
    Ali Jimale Ahmed, Poet, Chair and Professor, Department of Comparative Literature at Queens College and at the Graduate School, CUNY.
