What the woods knows- Poems

This book is a translation of my original book " Prakruti Prerane" in kannada Language.Collections about nature's beauty, rain, greenery, and birds are not new. But these poems do not merely describe the forest, river, rain, wind, soil, and living beings; they reveal the delicate yet supremely important relationship between humans and nature. The earth receding in the name of progress, the changing seasons, the silencing of birds-all of this resonates subtly within these poems. There is pain in places, anxiety in others; and in some, hope and faith. But everywhere, a strong awareness of the responsibility to live in harmony with nature is firmly rooted.This is an artwork that marvelously explains the cycle of creation, preservation, and dissolution, human emotions, the rise and fall of civilizations, and the fundamental truths of life. It is an excellent attempt to explore human existence, dependence, time, and the mysteries of the universe. A beautiful poetic work that presents philosophical principles poetically and sheds the light of enlightenment.In this beautiful poetry collection, Dr. Mallikarjuna Badiger views nature through scientific, mythological, and philosophical lenses. He has depicted the multifaceted form of creation most artistically and profoundly. The use of exquisite metaphors and similes is commendable. The depth of the poet's philosophical contemplation is superb. For those who neglect the environment, this is a wake-up call.
