Preface

I am able to write this book on poetry because of constant encouragement from my family. I am also thankful to my lucky charm Jahanabi for her encouraging words and for providing photographs for fifty percent of my books.

Last but not the least; I am thankful to Smashwords for publishing this travelogue as an e-book on their platform.
