Rhyme of the Century

Book"The Book is an anthology of 52 poems. The title 'Rhyme of the Century' is a takeoff from a progressive rock album by the British Band 'Supertramp' called Crime of the Century (1974), which was hailed globally on release. Even today after almost 50 years of release, the album is widely hailed as one of the top 200 albums of all time. The book contains 3 sections, Places/ People and Thoughts. The places have mostly been visited by the author and the people are all real, with fictitious names. Thoughts are emotions felt by the author at various times, more so after his training as a qualified personal counsellor and dealing with clients/ groups. The book is thus structured in a manner so that the reader reads one poem a week, absorbs the contents and is made to think about the topic. This way, reading the complete book would take one full year.
