Echoes Of A Teen’s Heart
by Sumedha

“Sometime back I read one book ‘অম্বর চুম্বিত’, written by Bijoy Dutta, which was based on Mounteneering Expedition, trekking etc. There he wrote, আমাদের জীবনধারনের জন্য বায়ুর প্রয়োজন। সারাদিনে একটা মানুষের ২২০০০ বার নিশ্বাস – প্রশ্বাসের কারনে ১৬ কিলো বায়ুর দরকার যা আমরা গাছ থেকে পাই যে অক্সিজেন ছাড়ে আর আমাদের ছাড়া কার্বন ডাই অক্সাইড নেয়। অর্থাৎ আমরা সম্পুর্ন ভাবে প্রক্রিতির উপর নির্ভরশীল।
I find from Echos Of A Teen’s Heart that auther here also tried to carry words from all the explorations inside nature and taken inspiration to grow in life which has been her teacher, guide, and pushed towards hope, happiness.
Though book is titled EOATH, the thoughts expressed therein are very impressive and some of them are quite thought provoking. To quote a few, Punishment, Power, Someone I know, Frozen Sparrow and many more.
I have no hesitation to admit that I never saw things in this manner, leave alone at this age. Her maturity level in this way is truly admiring.
Paying respect to the great Saint of all time needs mention. Concluding the creation with his famous quote ‘Arise…. reached’ deserves accolade.
Road Trip is very nicely painted about the feel of pleasure of journey. There she has picturised not only her own feeling but role of sun, tyre, road everything has been very well presented.
It is very difficult to chose the best one from so many nice pieces, but if I am allowed to choose, I shall vote for Power because here auther reminds herself that she has the power to fight. I admire this spirit which will be of great help in the forthcoming life struggle.
Normally I am not in the habit of reading poetry pieces but EOATH made me read at one go without any break. It was quite enjoyable, took me to her age, mindset, but found I was never near her thought level.
At the end I wish every success of EOATH and present the readers many such impressive ones in the days to come.
My best wishes to Manjari.
Until we meet again…..”
