SUMMIT, N.J., July 30, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Everything around Tayyaba Shakeel was a source of inspiration and whatever evoked emotion was a catalyst that urged her to put pen to paper. In her first literary offering, “Comets & Comments” (published by Archway Publishing), she invites readers on a poetic introspection about life, love and everything in between.
This compilation of poetry is divided into five sections. Here, Shakeel explores a variety of ideas and emotions that include love and heartbreak, additional abstract musings, suffering and lessons learned letters and wishes for divinity, and banter that includes both heartening and gloomy reflections. She expresses her thoughts and emotions in stanzas of varying style and length, sharing poetic insights on life, her personal identity and spiritual journey.
“I believe my book inspires introspection,” the author and poet says. “I want people to read my work and see themselves in it. I want them to be able to relate to it and find pieces of that speak to them on an emotional level.”
A poem from the book reads:
The word love cannot withstand
the weight of what I have in my heart for you.
But you, and the idea of you,
have always been overwhelming:
Grand and marvelous, a glimmering monument
of being.
