Meghadootam


In this lyrical poem the two prominent features are Love and Nature, both blended with vivid imagination. Of Nature the poet describes birds, cranes, peacocks, flowers, mountains and rivers as miniature paintings and backdrops to the sentiment of deep love in separation. The advent of the monsoon season gives hope to the lover to be able to convey through a cloud a love message to his beloved who leaves far away in the Himalaya mountain.
