Do Not Worry, My Dear

Book Review: Ayesha, the Return of She

Ayesha, the Return of She by H. Rider Haggard

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I had very high expectations for this novel. For me, the excitement began only from the second half of the story. I was looking for more virtuous philosophical quotes and passages like the prequel. But it didn't break my heart completely. There are a few highlights I made that I would love to read again.

Thus, everything said and done, I am always a big fan of Rider Haggard and I love the way he expresses emotions, virtues and wisdom in great depth using the language of Victorian era as the ultimate weapon to overwhelm his readers.

Short Story: Dawn of Hope

This was a long pending thing to do. Finally I am publishing it today. Hope you enjoy it.

Fleeting Angel

I looked up turning around

The spectacle of magical swirls

Dancing with colors of joy

On the dark canvas of blue sky

As the glitters shower down upon me

I realize it's you; it could only be you

My angel with large butterfly wings

Flying with the glow of nimbus

Who flew down from the heavens above

To tease me with your joyful play

Trying to hide in several places at once

While I get only glimpses of you

Sometimes here, sometimes there

But I know where to look for

I spin around for a quick glance

And then you are gone

Leaving a twinkle in the sky
