This book contains an assorted collection of poems that deal with life in its various forms. Spanning two different continents, it celebrates the rich cultural diversity of life in both countries - Ethiopia with its unique and rich Old Testament culture, and India with its rich mix of ancient rituals, traditions and spicy food. It is about all the complex emotions that affect us - joy, sadness, bitterness, acceptance and ultimately and understanding that comes from experience. The collection contains poems that deal with profound themes and also poems that reflect the memories of childhood. You don't read the book at one go, but go through each poem savoring each one with its distinct flavor.
