Not All Who Wander Are Lost

Not All Who Wander are Lost" is a collection of poems written by Baburaj Nair and Vidya Venkataramanan. The readers are taken through the stages of life, from the womb, to childhood, to adulthood, as we live out the roles we adorn through life, and prepare for the journey home. This journey is chronicled through the feelings/emotions of the child within the womb, emerging to face a world full of conflicts and experiences, of love and passions, overcoming fears of old age, to finally free the soul. The book provides a cardinal message - to be compassionate, and aware of each one's pitfalls, growing and appreciating, and accepting life without any illusions. To find peace and happiness for the soul - we need to pause and listen to all experiences in life. This is the journey of two poets to find their own souls.
