About the Book

My book entitled ‘Dreams Do Come True’ is a collection of sonnets or poems that I wrote over a period of two years. I know of only one writer who has written something a little similar in style to this. His name is ‘Richard Fish’ and the title of his book is ‘Thoughts And Feelings’. My book is not for any special age group, but it is for anyone around the world who is involved in this kind of literature. It consists of twenty poems and it is mostly about romantic feelings I have for some special people. Each poem is in the form of a sonnet, which consists of fourteen lines. This format was adapted originally by William Shakespeare from my studies of ‘Romeo and Juliet’, ‘Hamlet’ and ‘The Merchant of Venice’. These poems are for the serious poets. Those who can understand the true meaning behind every line in each poem. People who can actually feel the emotion I was experiencing as I penned each word. Those who are truly romantic at heart. There is not much more to say except thanks to everyone who encouraged me to get my book published and to my teacher who taught me about the great writer ‘William Shakespeare’.


About the Author

My name is Gopaul Ganpat. I am originally from British Guyana. I have a pretty big family, five brothers and four sisters. I came to the United States in 1982. I try to live a simple life, work hard at whatever I do and I try to help others whenever I can. Most people say I am an all around nice guy, very funny, honest and reliable. I started writing poetry in 1999 and here it is the year 2006 and I am getting my book published. I am really excited and I hope it does well.
