What Is It In Sarojini Naidu's The Golden Threshold? Poem by Bijay Kant Dubey

What Is It In Sarojini Naidu's The Golden Threshold?



With an Introduction from Arthur Symons
The book which has been dedicated to
Edmund Gosse
Appears in 1905
From Arnold Heinemann
Containing some remarkable poems
Such as
Palanquin-Bearers, Wandering Singers,
Indian Weavers, Coromandel Fishers,
The Snake-Charmer, Corn-Grinders,
Village-Song, Cradle-Song,
Indian Dancers, The Indian Gipsy,
The Pardah Nashin, Street cries,
To India, To a Buddha seated on a Lotus.

Sarojini is but a Hyderabadi poetess,
But very, very songful and musical
As she writes the poetry of the heart,
The poetry of the soul
And music is in her words,
Rhyme and rhythm dotting it always
And she pictures
What it is pleasing to her,
The aesthetic side, the beautiful,
A flower seller, a palanquin-bearer,
A corn-grinder, a churiwallah,
A fisherman, a boatman,
The crux of her thematic.
