From the firefly visiting the poet on a night in 1980 to a poem dedicated to his father in racing with the dolphins written in 2006, a host of bottled daffodil, at the corner of the ER room at a hospital in England in 1984, to the beauty of Alaska in a collection of poems in 2014, the book of poems holds the reader at every page, with emotions that eventually brings everyone together. The book is comprised of few chapters, titled the search outside, the search continues, searching within, followed by peace and happiness. American journeys pays homage to the cities which spoke to the author in their unique ways.
