These poems speak lucidly about the beauty of Nature that is awe-inspiring. Its beauty is everywhere—it is mesmerising and spell binding. The poet requests the reader to not only see the Grand tapestry of Nature but also ‘feel it’ as an integral part of ourselves. We need to stop awhile and look around us, as we see the slow transition of the seasons, leaving behind their enchanting trail. Nature is whimsical. It speaks a language that we need to decipher.
