About this document
Central Themes in "The Trees" Poem by Bijit Sinha is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The poem depicts trees that have been confined indoors but long to return to their natural habitat in the forest. Overnight, the trees struggle to free their roots from the cracks in the veranda and their leaves strain toward the glass window. Their branches move hesitantly under the roof like patients discharged from a hospital. In the morning, the poet writes letters on the veranda, taking in the fresh air and scent of leaves that has infiltrated the rooms, as the trees depart for the empty forest.
