Publisher's Summary:
In a world that too often gives us cause to despair, poet Raminder Bajwa chooses to focus on reasons for optimism. His two previous collections - Of Angels and Few Lies, of Everything under Blue Skies and Enlightenment - both explore humankind's search for hope, love, and faith. His third book, The Flute Player, now revisits these themes in 60 new poems that mix the personal with the universal.
The poems are grouped into four sections: "Of Love", "Observations", "Wishes", and "Attitude".
By turns unabashedly romantic, humorous, and spiritual, the poems are written in accessible language and illuminate thought-provoking truths about what it means to be alive in the 21st century.
Bajwa explores many timely topics, including terrorism, war, and tensions between citizens and the police. Throughout, he communicates his belief in our shared humanity and our ability to find solutions to problems. The longest section of the book is devoted to poems that celebrate the United States and the freedoms we enjoy, but the collection also includes poetic meditations on love, creativity, religion, success versus failure, and more.
Whether you have "the heart of a poet" as Raminder Bajwa does, or whether you simply enjoy looking at life through a poet's eyes, The Flute Player will entertain and touch you.

Differences Makes A Difference
The Flute Player by Raminder Bajwa is a beautiful collection of poems that includes love, being young, and our fallen heroes. The poems are broken up into sections: Of Love, Observations, Wishes and Attitudes. Within each section not only are these poems personal and passionate about the titled subject matter, but The Flute Player by Raminder Bajwa is different. As Bajwa expresses emotions throughout each poem, there are beautiful pictures representing most of the poems, courtesy of various photographers. The poems accompanied by pictures give a special touch. In The Flute Player you will find that there are poems for everyone, from Las Vegas and children to having a special crush.
I became intrigued by The Flute Player. As I navigated through each page of the book, it just opened up and presented a life of its own. The photos helped to give The Flute Player a presence. Just as on social media, it states that if your articles are accompanied by a photo, the likelihood of being viewed is greater. We are visual people. I have some favorites such as Which Side Are You On?, Life? Enough, Strings of Your Soul, and Salute due to the messaging displayed within each poem and, of course, the photos. The colorful pictures with my favorite poems just helped me to envisage more of what the poem was relaying. If you want a different poetic experience, I suggest that you get a copy of The Flute Player by Raminder Bajwa.
