Impressions is a collection of poems written over a span of twenty-five years. I have tried to capture love, peace and beauty, not only in words, but also through the photographs I have taken. Some photographs were taken in the era of the tiny view-finder in the camera, others, during the reign of digital cameras. I have attempted to blend the photographs with the soul of the poems I have written. While I travelled on work to various countries, I tried, between conferences and official corridors, to snatch a few moments to see and appreciate the beauty of the lands that I visited. This is the result of that attempt.
