This book is all about embellishing every facet of life with the art called poetry. Yes, this art transcends all creeds and brings together mankind under one umbrella of symbiotic co-existence. The most banal and the most intense truth is made enduringly beautiful with poetry, which is essentially written with the ink of compassion dissolved in pain. Every poem is an attempt to discover the core of human psyche; the way it perceives and deals with relationships and situations of all kinds. I believe I have been successful to a certain extent in bringing out the truth which is so evasive otherwise. This truth imparts the unique beauty and lasting appeal to my poems as it dazzles and floats on the surface of each poem. It is a result of the churning of the soul with the curdler of heart. Hope you enjoy these poems as they are my sincere effort to bring out the best to your esteemed and sensible self.

Human beings ought to be humble and humane. Love and sympathy should exude from their behavior. Selflessness and altruism should deck their personalities. They should adhere to honesty even if it has perilous outcomes. They should abide by the truth even if it is against their interests. Kindness should be their hallmark and should not only extend to their own fraternity but to animals and plants too. Forgiveness should be their motto and compassion should be their second nature. Their countenance should be pleasant and their mannerisms gracious. Sincerity should be writ large in all their undertakings. Their lives should be governed by self-discipline. People should be able to depend on them when times are bleak. Sharing their blessings should come naturally to them. They must be just even to their enemies. Contentment should be their permanent companion. Their strong connection with God should continue to give them the courage to bear persecution for the sake of righteousness. If they can live and die for others they would be humans par excellence.If these "Rhymes in Humanity" can in any way help people to be high achievers as human beings, it would be a small service from someone who is also striving in this cause in spite of all his failings.

Unlocking the Poetry of W.B. Yeats undertakes a thorough re-reading of Yeats' oeuvre as an extended meditation on the image and theme of the heart as it is evident within the poetry. It places the heart at the centre of a complex web of Yeatsian preoccupations and associations—from the biographical, to the poetic and philosophical, to the mythological and mystical. In particular, the book seeks to unlock Yeats’ mystifying aesthetic vision via his understanding of the ancient Egyptian "Weighing of the Heart" ceremony. The work provides a chronological narrative arc that looks to use the theme of the heart as it recurs in the poetry in order to circumvent and overcome more established frameworks. Its purpose is to offer refreshing ways of conceptualizing and building alternatives to more deeply entrenched, but not entirely satisfactory arguments that have been offered since Yeats' death in 1939, while demonstrating the centrality of the occult to Yeats' art.
