Footprints

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 can't it remain beautiful forever

Why can't it always remain a romantic place?

Why isn't 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 everyone's heart has experienced
and felt but carried away by the stream of life before
an imprint is made.

They are everyone's own footprints.
