    About this ebook

    Married to Nazim, proud Mom of Shehana and Isham, Grandmom to Omar, Luca, Maximillian, Roman, Alexander and Zoya.

    Childhood memories of life in resplendent Isle of Sri Lanka, harboring dreams of
    Hope, Peace and Love for all beings, my mantra for Life.

    Love of music rhyme and lyric and a love of nature, which is the greatest artwork that
    keeps on giving and inspiring, using every color of a paint box and more took me on a
    flowery path to writing this book of poems.

    I wish you all Peace and Love.
