Shadows Of The Mind: A Collection Of Poems

This book is a result of reflective thoughts over many issues in life over many years. The inspirations to write some of the poems in this book come from everyday the experiences of the author, his friends and TV news items. The poems and expressions in this book cover human relationships, such as love, family, friends, fear, and economic and sociocultural themes. Everything we encounter in life does shape our thoughts and personality. The words we speak from our hearts when we reflect on our experiences tell what happens inside our soul. These emotions open like the cherry blossom flowers on a spring day. Poetry captures our experiences and milieu that mold our philosophy each day. The poetry in this book is in the freestyle tradition, which is an expression of my thoughts in a way that captures the freedom of the human soul to soar in the sky like the eagle or the hawk, looking for a prey. I feel emancipated when I put my thoughts on paper.
