Four Seasons of Life

By Niveditha SJ

"Four Seasons of Life" serves as Niveditha SJ's second poetry collection. While her first book, Nidhi, was a collection of poems from her adolescent years (ages 10 to 15), this compilation encapsulates her creative output over the past four years. Exploring a diverse array of subjects and emotions, Niveditha adeptly expresses herself in both English and Hindi. The titular poem, draws parallel between life's journey and the changing seasons. She captures the essence of innocence through mundane experiences like bus rides and school days, while delving into more complex themes of freedom and financial concerns and evoking the vigor of youth. Interwoven with her affection for mythology, select pieces in the collection resonate with deeper layers of meaning, as seen in the Hindi poem, "Pativrata," which poignantly reflects on the impact of societal norms, even on figures as prominent as queens. Despite its simplicity, Niveditha's writing skillfully unravels dimensions in the reader's mind, inviting introspection.
