Short Poems, Long Tales

Poetry books are generally ignored, unless the poet is famous. By its very nature, poetry is tuned to emotions and feelings in a person. Very often, such feelings are transitionary, and after emotionally moving a reader, poems often leave them without a residual meaning in their mind. In this book, Short Poems, Long Tales, the poet conveys a message that is perhaps a bit more lasting. It modifies the understanding process and makes it more relevant to living in the 21st century, where we have a global culture. Now, it is important to leave narrow views behind and look ahead. Discriminating people, are very hurtful, but will be with us for the foreseeable future. We must learn how to live with them. Poems in this book help with that. A second parameter they address is gauging the actual passage of time. Most people are not mindful of this and live their lives without realizing how time passed away. The third aspect is universal human instincts that are common to people around the globe. The mood proposed by the author in this book is to learn to deal with each other in the concept of live-and-let-live. This is in the theme of Sufi poems.
The entire learning from this book of poetry is to enable a more thoughtful and understanding person. At times, some poems are mildly witty in a refreshing way.
