About the Book

‘WELLSPRINGS: Poems of Life & Nature’, is the largest collection of works by the author. It is a meditation on life as experienced by him and his subjects, and the human condition as observed by him.

 

The poems are deeply contemplative and introspective. They are celebratory and vividly evocative of memorable moments, past and present. Wherever perplexing philosophical themes are treated, this is invariably done with sanguineness and in a redemptive tone. They are delightfully laden with allusions, are lyrically innovative and brimful of feelings.

 

These poems will appeal to a broad section of poetry enthusiasts.
