About the Book
With our world so rapidly changing and expanding in technology, we need to renew our adherence to the lofty human principles which are our birthright, and which would allow us to live in happiness and prosperity with all other human beings in a just and peaceful world. This collection of poetry is the author’s contribution to such a revival, and will supplement other worthy efforts towards this objective. It is presented to parents, educators and students of Psychological Development, with the belief that poetry has the advantage over the normal prose essays of inspiring as well as edifying. It was originally designed as a gift to his relatives and close friends with the title: Move Closer to Heaven in 2011, indicating that the poems come straight from the heart, and should affect readers likewise.
