  "My Life in Poems" is the fusion of cherished memories woven with our parents, grandparents, cousins, friends, and soulmates. 
  In the digital world, where life is virtually driven, there is a feeling of void many times. That’s when we reminisce about our golden days from childhood, memories of adulthood, deep emotions, and the journey of transformation. 
  "My Life in Poems" is a memoir of experiences carefully chosen from the bouquet of soulful moments, instrumental in our evolution, guiding us towards self-realization. The poems also journey through the valley of change, slowly turning us into someone we couldn’t recognize anymore. In these years of ups and downs, while we were living, were we truly living?

That is why when we were writing these poems, they offered deep insight into all the phases of our lives and the truth behind those lonely and scary moments. The question lurked: will we ever reach our goal? 
  Whether you are a teenager, in your mid-career, or spending time with your grandchildren, these poems will create curiosity and an urge to discover the voice of your inner being. 
  Listen to know more about these soulful revelations from the authors of bestseller romantic, thriller, and adventure fiction novels, and winners of many literary awards.

  GAZA Today: Would You Turn Your Back. 
  (Harmony-Join Book 4) 
  Everyone knows what Gaza is. A strip of land in the Middle East, being vociferously fought over. 
  I don't want to get into the Politics of it, but at least a brush with it is unavoidable if you attempt 
  any kind of dialogue or description of the occurrences that are happening there - truly awful. 
  This poem is a short one, and keeps to the suffering of its people, and not delving too much into sides 
  of the Political spectrum. 
  I think the suffering in a modern day scenario with instant and graphic footage of this one-sided war 
  is horrific. 
  Regardless of who did what to who, and who did it first etc, it should be focused on the humanitarian side 
  in any conflict lest we lose sight of what we maybe fighting for - I think the focus on humanity has been totally 
  lost. 
  Are we to Turn Our Back on these people. The West should push for extreme Sanctions to reign in the seemingly 
  unstoppable gungho aggression of the combatants - There is a Geneva convention you know. 
  It can only mean something if it is enforced... 
  Footnote: This Poem is all about the kids in this conflict. Whose right and whose wrong, shouldn't come into it 
  on the humanitarian field of view.

  Nikolai Gogol

  Nikolai Vasilievich Gogol was born on 1st April 1809 to a father, descended from Ukrainian Cossacks and a mother with a military background in the Ukrainian town of Sorochyntsi, then part of the Russian Empire and rich in Cossack traditions and folklore.   
   
  His father wrote poetry and plays which the young Gogol helped stage at his uncle’s home theatre.  This helped ignite in him a love of literature and blossomed when he attended, what is now, the Nizhyn Gogol State University at the age of 12.  Here he participated in school theatre productions and refined his mastery of his native Ukrainian and also the Russian of his Imperial masters. 
   
  In 1828 he went to St Petersburg and unsuccessfully tried to begin a career as an actor after finding that with no money and no connections the civil service was barred to him. 
   
  Embezzling money from his mother he embarked on a trip to Germany. When the money ran out, he returned to St Petersburg but the experiences were used in a series of stories he contributed to periodicals.  These tales were steeped in his childhood memories of the Ukrainian landscape and peasantry enlivened with the supernatural of its folklore woven with realistic events of the day.  He wrote in Russian in a whimsical, colloquial style with a smattering of Ukrainian words and phrases that provided an authenticity.  Eight stories were published as ‘Evenings on a Farm near Dikanka’.  Seemingly all at once fame and fortune arrived. Gogol was hailed by his contemporaries, including Pushkin, as a pre-eminent writer of Russian literature.   
   
  His success continued with his brilliant plays ‘The Inspector General’ and the comedy ‘The Marriage for the Theatre’, both being highly acclaimed.   
   
  In 1834 he became Professor of Medieval History at the University of St. Petersburg but with little academic or teacher training, failed to adequately fulfil many of his duties and soon resigned this post.  With no obligations and using his earnings from his writing, which now included the impressionistic and immortal ‘Dead Souls’, Gogol travelled around Europe, spending the most time in Rome where he studied art, read Italian literature and developed a passion for opera.  
   
  In the 1840s Gogol became preoccupied with a need to purify his soul and embarked on a pilgrimage to Jerusalem. In tandem he fell under the influence of a strict and austere spiritual ascetic who persuaded him to observe strict fasts that, allied with his depression and deteriorating health, contributed to his death on 21st April 1852 at the age of only 43. 
   
  In ‘Old Fashioned Land Owners’ Gogol describes a peaceful setting and a peaceful couple who have grown old together.  But foreboding makes an entrance and life is now a series of cruel twists that breaks everything.
