Poems in a breezy evening

Padyam or traditional poem is a unique form of Telugu language.And there are scores of poems penned by many poets. Among them, Daasaradhi Satakam is a prominent one.Satakam means a collection of hundred poems.Daasaradhi Satakam was penned by Kancherla Gopanna almost three centuries back.Every poem is in metrical  form,so it's very easy to by heart once it got by the child in the tender age.And the child will never forget the poems,that's why it has become a tradition to teach the poems as much as possible.Of course,the days are changing and it has been dwindling in present scenario.

Sri Rallabandi Balaji Raju,a local academician, has exclusively taken a responsibility to spreading the love towards it among the children.Yesterday,he  conducted an event of reciting more than hundred poems in the premises of Saraswati sishu mandir. The program had been taken place in open ground enjoying  breezy atmosphere. Young enthusiasts listened to the master in order to hone their  skills.Sri Raju also gifted the copies of the poems to be kept with them for reference.The event came up only with the personal interest of him out of his love towards the form of the poem.
