Stephen Gill, a Canada based multiple-award winning poet whose roots are in the centuries-old culture of the subcontinent India, is determined to spread the message of peace in the world. He is a creator who creates a world where there is justice, peace and security. With the throat of the dove, he offers his Songs before Shrine so that Shrine may have Flashes of The Flame for the destruction of the darkness of terrorism spread by the darkness of terrorism spread by the maniac messiahs. His poetry is the Bible of peace that must be read for saving the humanity from destruction. Like Tagore, he wants to execute his vision of a peaceful world. He is a poet who knows how and where to use his pen for the betterment of the humanity. He begins, struggles, experiences pain and suffering, sometimes feels disappointed but never leaves his battle against the destructive forces. He is a messiah or a sufi singing the songs of love and peace for the welfare of the people of the world.
Gill s poetic idiom is flawless and rich in conception and execution. He avoids clich s and uses fresh images. He does his best to maintain the logical flow so that the continuity of verse may not be broken. The tonal variations ad pleasure to the verse in such a manner that the reader feels the very spirit of the lines that go deeper and deeper in his heart. His phraseology has a vast sky of imagination and offers the vista to the reader who himself experiences the things of the world which the poet has created for him to imagine.
This monograph is an exhaustive study of Stephen Gill s poetic corpus. It will not only cater the new critical dishes to the researchers, teachers and general readers but also make them inquisitive for exploring further critical flavours.
