Inditing a love poem is a conscious endeavour to figure out what humans have been grappling to figure out since time immemorial. It is a struggle to find out the apt and suggestive words in our head with the emotions in our heart. 'In Quest of Love' is a collection of brilliant love poems. Most of the poems in this Collection assert more than ' I Love You '. They often communicate a specific aspect of being in love and tend to have a universality that goes beyond one person. Most poems rely on imagery and sensory detail to create a visual for the readers. Some poems that seem like love poems on the surface but, more often than not, they are something different.

Dr Shakil Ahmed
Dr. Shakil Ahmed was born to a respectable family at Badarpur in Assam. He started his professional life as an Assistant Professor of English. Since his boyhood he was an ardent lover of literature specially of poems. Mr Ahmed's creative World is aesthetic with philosophical aspects being pregnant with both mundane and universal perspectives from every corner of life. Among his published works "Whispering Words"
Is notable. His another book on poems"Rhythm", a collaborative work with Sankar Sarkar, is full with philosophical views of life. He endeavours to make every single one of his poems smile with a breath-taking quality right from the opening line. Music and rhythm of his poems illumine the heart of the readers breaking through all stony obstacles of mundane world. His notable book of poems "Echo of Love", a collaborative work with Lalita G. Garcia the Head of the Department of English at Taguig City University, Phillippine, is a spectacular anthology, replete with jubilation of romantic love. Sometimes the quest of love becomes philosophi TVcal crossing mundane barriers of love. In many poems, love transforms into an eternal longing, breathing fragrance of vivacious life in a romantic world where fret and fevers doesn’t touch the feet of lovers. His another sparkling Anthology, "Journey Together: Cross Border Poetry" a collaborative composition with Shakil Kalam, a reputed poet of Bangladesh and author of many books. This Anthology deals with dishevelled threads of life and endeavours to unite into one by means of poetic creation.
In many of his poems art has grown deeper and it has become religious and philosophical. The futility of this banal world is painted, in many of his poems, revealing to the reader the existence of an invisible eternal world. While in some others death is visualised as an inevitable one, which everyone has to face, and his helplessness is exposed. He is found contend to discover the soul and surrender himself to its spontaneity. Whatever we have jarring to the senses and dissonant in our mortal life, in his superb portrayal, melts into one sweet harmony and our adoration spreads wings like a joyous bird on its flight over the hills and dales.
