Written in simple rhyme, the poems touch upon emotions, nature and imaginative situations.

Other styles of poetry also have a place in the book: Acrostic, Rictameter, Haiku and Onomatopoeia.

The first letter of each new line when put together forms a word/name. This is Acrostic; but the poet has also written the poem in rhyme.

In Rictameter style, the poem has a diamond shaped look, as it is written in a certain number of syllables per line, in ascending and descending orders.

Haiku poetry is a thought or a scene expressed in just three lines.

Onomatopoeia is a poem in which sounds are expressed in words.

The Songs section includes a patriotic poem, Jai Hind My India, and three children's poems, Lullaby, A Child's Song and My Little Airplane.

This book of poems is sure to keep the reader enthralled.
