PREFACE
“FEELINGS” (2) is my second publication. My first Anthology, “FEELINGS” was published in 1994.
I do not claim to be a poet of Wordsworth, Keats or Milton’s calibre. I have given the title “FEELINGS” because it is certainly an overwhelming expression of how I feel about some of the social issues that are reflected in our community. My views are conveyed as “Verse form” and yet they are not “Poetic,” by any means. They are merely a form of “spontaneous flow of human expressions.” If my readers accept this definition, then I will certainly feel a sense of contentment in writing my Anthology: “FEELINGS” (2)
I have always believed in following my conscience. So I have forged ahead to get “FEELINGS” (2) published. The Short Stories included in this Anthology reflect my observations on life as it is portrayed in our community. It is sincerely hoped that my readers will connect with me and appreciate the Anthology. This publication is not meant for “Literary Criticism,” it is a personal reflection about life and living.
Please be informed that I have included couple of poems from my first publication. I felt the poems echo some pertinent issues relevant to our present social climate. Once again, I fervently hope my readers will enjoy the Anthology. Please be assured it reflects my genuine concerns about our rapidly changing social and moral values.
Happy Reading!
