AESTHETIC EVOCATIONS: HARBINGER OF TRANQUILITY - POEMS BY WILLIAMSJI MAVELI

Now his latest book "AESTHETIC EVOCATIONS"  a collection of his amazing poems with awesome analysis by Dr Cijo Joseph Chennelil has been published by Author’s Click.

The subtle side of his spirituality can be felt in all his poems. His words, like his first poem "Word Bird" have a soft feathery touch in rhymes and rhythms. These poems can induce a feeling of quietude in the mind of the readers.

"Against The Storm" is a perfect example of resilience and indomitable spirit of human mind which can remain uncorrupted with all the commotions and storm that surrounds us.

Williamsji's philosophy of life is quite amazing. Most of his poems have a tender fragrance of metaphysics. He says, life within and without is filled to the brim with many curves and bends. Yet he is certain, life is an eternal beauty. Philosophy emerges from the depths of aloneness of a noble poet. His solitude moments as in his "Unveiled Canvas" is waiting for the rising sun.

His aesthetic sensibilities can be seen in his poem "Dawn Unfolds". He holds a mirror to the sad state of human beings in "Alone".

Williamsji never grumble about pains and tribulations of life. It is this positivity in him that has gathered divine  strength amidst all sorts of stumbling blocks of life.

His poems that speaks about the beauty of women are truly magnificent from all dimensions.

"She is not a bloom to be possessed
But a garden where wonders are dressed
A masterpiece for all to see"

These lines speaks about his respect towards women. Indirectly he praises the creator who has carved this amazing beauty.

Williamsji describes love in such a mesmerising manner, the readers forget themselves wandering in those dreamy paths. His vision of love goes beyond time and space like a radiant bloom. According to him love's compass is a guiding eye.

"Love's embrace where we belong
Strength in hearts that beat as one
Love's symphony has forever begun."

For him chemistry between two loving beings is that "tender grace". Further he says,
"True love cannot be altered in the course of time".

"Life is beautiful because there is no end"
In this line he includes the beauty of death alongwith birth. Like birth, death also posses a matchless beauty. It takes forward the creation cycle into a new domain.

Williamsji's admiration for the ingenuity of the creator can be seen in "Weaver's Loom". Peculiarities and complexities of life are shown in these picturesque intricate style.

Wind blows.. For the wind knows that to live under the scorching heat of the sun and for the fear of loneliness of the vast desert to fade away"

For a poet, the state of mind beyond space and time is his "Soul Call".

I consider it as a great honor to write my humble foreword for this amazing collection "Aesthetic Evocations" written by my respected friend Williamsji Maveli with beautiful analysis by Dr. Cijo Joseph Chennelil.
