The book brings together the poems, including collections published from 1974-2009. In effect, the poems cover a span of over 35 years, reshuffling the past and providing a composite view of the poet's creativity.
Dr R K Singh manages to tell his experience, bitter or sweet, mostly bitter, in minimum possible words. He would eliminate all the non-essentials from his composition. He would chiefly exploit, like Hemingway, the vigour of verb in his poems, and avoid the pomp and vanity of adjective altogether. This way of writing makes his poems far different from the poems we often come across in Indian English poetry magazines. -- I.K.Sharma, Poet
This collection of poetry addresses the nature of time, reflections on the natural world, the difficulty of loss,
contemporary social issues and gratitude for life.
