Mirror Footprints

Annotation

Life offers beautiful and romantic moments with the sun rises, endlessly stretching deep and calm oceans, dew drops glistening on grass blades on a winter morning, tall deciduous trees rising high and high to reach the sky.. the list is endless. It is harsh and ugly too at times what with wars, early deaths, tsunamis, cyclones, loss of near and dear world is full of darkness. Why cant it remain beautiful forever?? Why cant it always remain a romantic place? Why isnt there everlasting peace? Answers can be found in these poems written over a period of two years, born out of a four decades old quest to find answers to these nagging questions. They mirror what everyones heart has experienced and felt but carried away by the stream of life before an imprint is made. They are everyones own footprints.
