VAGNAHRIDAY (Rabindranath Tagore)

Deep, simple and pensive, the poems of Gitanjali : Song Offerings  are those compositions where songs and poetry coalesce into a graceful, continuous form. It is that test where poetry, divesting all of its adornments, becomes songs identical. Looking at this tightly composed form, Rothenstein felt that Gitanjali  is that poetry which has paused in a very simple way.
