This collection of poetry and short stories portray the dark and bright side of city life that sparkles like coloured ice on sale in ice cream counters. Each and every piece is sparkling, delectable, tempting, with a swaying rhythm. A blues song in tempo weaving its unforgettable tunes through back alleys and speeding high ways. Through rustling grass, and sighing wind. Through the million soulful yearnings of the human mind that rises above all to conquer that elusive high ground.
