![]() Dewdrops are short, sweet, selfless, and delicate, while banyan tree depicts shadow, long spells of life, power, and authority. My personal favorite is the titular poem: Dewdrop and Banyan Tree that talks about two aspects of life – delicacy and being strong. He is of the opinion, in many poems, that we humans have defiled the earth that may push the upcoming generations into the tunnel of darkness.Īlso some of the poems are translation of Malayalam poems written by his mother, which is a unique way to pay tribute to her. ![]() One thing that I found strongly in this lovely book is that the poet misses his past life of youth and childhood, and he is equally concerned about the future of his grandson. On a pros note, the book has that undercurrent of optimism and positivity. On offer are 50 short poems on life lessons, memories, nostalgia, tribute to parents, motherly love, vagaries of life, and Covid pandemic. This book is straight, meaningful, enjoyable and extremely lucid and delicate within its language flow. ![]() ![]() Ramachandran Rajasekharan’s debut book of poetry, Dewdrop and Banyan Tree finely expresses its concern and raises voice that echoes within the heart of the poet. Rightly said in the beginning, poetry is the finest form of literature. ![]()
