The book "Scribbles on Sand" by Ciprian Bujor is a collection of his poems. The author focuses the majority of his writing on describing how individuals might sometimes behave and explaining the raw feelings that a lot of people feel in their everyday lives. When a person reads this book, they will occasionally experience a range of experiences, including pain, loss, love, and a great many others, which the book will sometimes evoke in them. Many of the poems in this collection will strike a chord with the reader.

The author's poetry was, for the most part, easily understood and beautiful with regard to its approach. The majority of them were short poems, and some of them even had illustrations to go along with them. The illustrations had the appearance of having been drawn with a pencil, but I was surprised to learn that crayons were used to draw them instead.

The fact that none of the poems had titles was one of the things about the collection that bothered me. Even if they had a number, I would have been grateful for it because then I would have had a method to get back to it. Because of this, I won't be able to name the poems in the book that are my favourites.

The author's clever use of wordplay in his poetry was one of my favourite aspects of his work. The illustrator drew lips and eyes in a style that I've never seen done before, and it was beautiful to see them rendered in such a way. It astounded me how the author was able to grab my attention with their tercet poems, or, to be more accurate, haikus, of which there were quite a few in the book.

I give this book a perfect score. 5 out of 5 stars because I couldn't find a single thing to criticise about it. The haikus were my favourites, but I also liked the other poems that were included. The poetry was, for the most part, simple to understand and very captivating. Because I did not find any mistakes in the book, I feel that it has been edited to perfection.

Adults who enjoys poetry and has an interest in poetry that discusses the ups and downs of life should read this book.
