Window to Freedom

By Yaroo

Yaroo’s poems are eclectic and are close to our lives, how the events in our personal lives and in our world touch us and bring emotional and spiritual changes. These poems make us see life’s events not just as they pass us but makes us feel and express how we live and endure its various phases and challenges.

These poems are about hope, love, contentment, friendship, peace, tranquility, freedom, and soul.

These poems show that faith, hope, and contentment essentially make us live a balanced life in good times and through the tough times not only in our lives but in others as well. These poems show how faith, hope, and contentment have to be nurtured and developed and are not gifts one is born with. They are difficult to have unless we are disciplined in keeping them in the forefront in how to live our daily lives.

Dedication

This book is dedicated to my parents and Zulfiqar Lakhani. In my life’s most difficult time, I turned around to see how alone I was, and found him standing by me.

My wife Naureen, my daughter Malaika, my brothers, Nadim and Moin, also my aunt Meher, their enjoyment and applause when I recited my poems at the dinner table after a wonderful dinner encouraged me to have Window to Freedom printed.

Athar Noman Khan, a Yaroo, a buddy, a friend for encouraging and giving me the confidence that made me to think seriously to publish my poems.

All my family members and friends that I did not intrude upon, for which they should thank me.
