Simple Findings

By Aaliya Akhun

About the book:
An everyday life thought, penned down with a simple pencil, pen or the feather which was used centuries ago. This while, when we see the poems written, a sense of clarity is out there to prove an ordinary and extra ordinary life. The large plain canvas is set out to be smudged with all the these words that can hold series and depictions of life.

‘Simple Findings' as a title relives perseverance, potential and usual life. The book has been written with these aspects in mind. A hard working person, is closely related to the penned down book, which makes sure every single one relates to what has been spoken, written and thought about.

Preface

Poetry transcends thoughts and emotions. 

As an artist, what is seen is subdued in our conscious and subconscious mind. All life's important decisions do live in bits and parts of the memory we conjugate for our own pleasure and laughter. In these minor days and monotone colours, we do develop every single day and lifestyle moment in parenthesis (). 

With long hours and days, we shine through our tiniest soul, where words, which were bitten off the tip of our mouth to finally being able to spell them out. This journey of a new beginning, or possibly a beginning to transform the left out choices of your own words is where 'Simple Findings' comes in light. 

The light of this pure or damaged soul we see, every day in the mirror, in the windows and reflections of water spilled on the street with inverted structures. Such is the name and symbolism of the book which leads to moments of peace, time and again.

A favourite quote of mine to grace this book with; When life knocks you down, roll over and see the stars.

Acknowledgements

All that have helped me write a book, motivated in sharing my writing with all people deserve an appearance in my poetry collection.  

I would like to thank my parents for giving me books at an early age, so I could get hooked to literature which has finally led me to create an abode for myself using words. They have displayed undying support for me even at my lowest moments and made me the person who I am today. 

My siblings; Maryam and Faadil are the pillars of my strength, and I would like to thank them for their support for reading my poems and placing them with exceptional ratings and criticising the parts which could be improved.

My professors are my biggest support when I needed an open statement to develop self confidence in my daily life. 

Dipti Ma'am and Devika Ma'am, you both have increased my vocabulary to write and made sure I get enough opportunities to speak up my mind in front of dozens of people. I am grateful to you both. 

Eliza Ma'am, this course which finally brought me was still apprehensive at start, when I started learning I wasn't well versed but the time and energy you spent on me to create new meanings to help me understand, has made me reach to situations where I feel proud of myself. I thank you ma'am for all the confidence you have given me to become the writer I am today.

My final thanks would be to my dear friends, Shreya and Ishmeet for relishing every poetry model I sent through, for them. Their honest opinions and continuous compliments were a 'lifesaver'.You two are exceptionally few of the best people I received from my misadventures and I hope to relive them for an extended while.

Introduction

What we see, we have believed in a similar category. 

The Introduction of this book, is no special. As such, we will go along in the version of a poem. 

The book, 

Copied by eyes, 

Laid by experiments,

 Of observation.

 Hands type,

 Look forward to greeting,

The pages and laptop,

 For further writing.

 A book might help us rephrase,

 Or

Find us sustenance.

 Days are despondent,

 Days are exciting or stubbed under expectations.

 How does the world not stop?

But we do Stop!

When we stare at a hole in the wall,

 There are millions of people working,

When they take a break and breathe,

 So do we.

 Billions of them open eyes now,

 While few switch off lamps.

 The world is working, 

So, with writing on what I see,

 A similar perspective is backed up.

 I want to write.

Of course,

 I take time off to just stare at a view,

 When it is imprinted in me, Is a new-found poem and topic. 

With the end of
