    About this ebook

    Blossom in 'The Journey' attempts to describe 'Life' as a ride with several destinations and vistas. He discusses a range of relatable themes and ideas including love, growth and the personality of those things around us that we can't see or touch. He applies a rich use of imagery, analogies, aphorisms and other fine-coated literary devices to drive his message home. This book will help you enjoy the very art of poetry.

      This book is dedicated to every imaginary character my running mind has conjured or come across. To every penned word that I’ve found peace in using.

      This book is also dedicated to every single person who still believes in my pen and I.

      For Dad,

      Send me a postcard from heaven one of these days.

      I love you, dearly.

      Always have, always will…
