How does the poetess make an attempt to immortalize the casuarina tree?





Answer: The poetess Toru Dutt shows her love and affection to a casuarinas tree that is situated in her home garden. That tree bears a lot of childhood memories of the poetess and her siblings. So the poetess has special love and affection for her beloved casuarinas tree. She wishes that tree may live forever. In order to immortalize that tree, she dedicates a small song in the honour of it. She believes that though all her playmates have died and one day she will also die, her beloved tree will not die. It will be alive with the deathless trees of Borrow-dale Valley. Here the poetess also shows her firm faith in the power of her poetry to immortalize its subject. She thinks that in her poetry, in which way the tree’s beauty has been described, that tree will defend the oblivion’s curse and even the death.
