My 50th Navigation

The title of this book of poems is My 50th Navigation around the world of words; not only talks about love, but it also contains motivational poetries. Yes. The composition of a poem is the manifestation of feelings through thoughts via words onto paper, in other words, it is the conveyance of ordinary words into other, more poetic words, whilst the reader is confronted with the task to re-establish the origin of metaphoric references. And here's one more way that poetry is like music. It's said that people's favorite tune is the one most popular when they first fell seriously in love-though probably everything surrounding such a moment remains memorable. It has to do with what the heart is paying rapt attention to. So too with poems. Our allegiances are formed by our first serious readings-the poems we get by heart, as it were. I don't mean childhood rhymes or classroom assignments. ~Author (Naila Rais)
