Poetry – A Garland of Words

Description

Poetry- A garland of words is a collection of poems primarily based on the theme of nature. The poems in the book are a result of my life-long love for nature and natural surroundings. Also, I have always been captivated by the vastness of the cosmos. Our lives seem so utterly insignificant when we reflect on the vastness of the universe. This vastness of cosmos has always humbled me as a person and has created a significant impact on my ways of perceiving things around me. My admiration for nature and cosmos has had a substantial impact on my poetic style as well. The collection of poems in my book Poetry- A garland of words embraces the beauty of nature and draws motivation from its greatness. To interest the readers, I have also experimented with different forms of poetry such as Zappai, Haiku, Elfchen, etc. In my view, to produce poetry, observing things with accuracy, and describing them with fidelity are the key factors. I have always been a keen spectator of nature, which helped produce much of my poetic work. For me being in nature has always been relaxing and exhilarating at the same time and puts my soul in a state that is conducive to creative thought and mental experimentation. The universe as a whole gives us immeasurable ways of making us feel better about our lives. Through my poems, I have made an effort to vividly describing the beauty of nature and, at the same time, draw some inspiration for life. I hope that readers from all spheres of life will find my poems pleasurable to read and useful to study.
