“We often don’t realize what we can do with whatever we have.”
When our passion finds expression in the form of art, beautiful creations are the result. ‘Boundless’ is one such beautiful creation which is a compilation of 58 poems, broadly classified under the subjects of self-reflection, path of seeking, night and stars, love and life, fantasy and imagery and lastly narratives.
The thing I liked the most about this collection is how the author, even while presenting esoteric concepts, hasn’t tried to hide the sentiments under exacting words or phrases. There is an artistic simplicity in the metaphorization which I enjoyed.
That being said, there were also some poems whose meanings I found a bit difficult to grasp. However, the balance between simple and richly structured poetry was appreciable. Also, the mystical touch of folklore and mythology added a lot of dimensions to the poems.
Now the only things that bothered me a bit were the editing and printing mistakes. However, after discussing with the author, I am assured that these will be taken into consideration and I am grateful to the author for this.
Other than that, I feel that this book is going to be a treat for poetry and mythology lovers. So, if you are one of them, you can surely check out this book. Also, can we take a moment to appreciate this beautiful cover?

Let's just take a minute to appreciate how beautiful the cover is ? Mesmerizing ! It not it?
It makes me aware of how small we are in compared to the universe. And again each of our souls are perfectly prominent to cosmos.
Very soulful.
Coming to the content it is an anthology of some really thoughtfully created pieces.
I can definitely say this book is a beautiful art in itself. It's a blend of a bit of nostalgia, a little of melancholy, a pinch of saudade and a lot of freedom in oneself!
There are total six parts. Self Reflection, Path of seeking l, Night & Stars, Love & Life , Fantasy & Imagery, Narrative.
There are handful of poems in forms of non rthymic proses and verses divided into each theme. I like really poems with allegories. They are decorated with spiritual interpretation metaphors and psychological allegories.
Now they paint pictures of different aspects of our being, from understanding one self to the world sprinkled with hues of nuances of emotions.
Her feeling has been interpreted intricately giving them philosophilocal touch which if one can comprehend will feel relatable in many ways.
If you are into soulful and thoughtful collection of poetry, do give this book a try. Definitely the content will make you feel the extraordinary beauty and essence that's hidden in our mundane lives.

Every person in their own universe and even the smallest of entities envisages the power of the cosmos entirely.
This book of 58 intricately written poems tries to enlighten the universe and connect you with it from within with its poem that talks about the cosmos, stars, and heavenly bodies that exist in this universe with us. We are the metaphors and the universe, and all these elements exist within us and because of us. The artistic representation and mythical correlation of the cosmos to exist as us is what catches the minds of a reader.
The book cover is extremely apt and beautiful regarding the book and the author has a refined taste of poetry which as a poetry enthusiast I loved.
I think for a person interested to buy this one or reading the review right now I would like to mention two things:
Firstly, that the poems written are on point and harmonize your souls if the reader is known to the world of poetry because the poems hav3 a unique balance of putting simple words for intense meanings.
Secondly, some poems are on the different and pro reader side that would be a good learning experience for the new readers.
But the way the poems are written and talk about our minds, thoughts, actions, power, pain, love, etc with a relationship to the universe and cosmos and a slight mythical edge. this book is really refined piece of art and I loved it personally.

Few favorite lines from the book

Life , you are a tough mistress indeed
You claim to want to be understood but you make sure to be as elusive as the mysterious universe itself.
One day we are clear and so sure-footed about our paths
Only to throw them into irreparable disarray
One day we think we are wise as sages themselves
Only to realize we are green and naive as everything else. "
"Boundless" as the title suggests is an inexhaustible repertoire of layers of emotions neatly adorned with metaphors. Its my first time reading a contemporary poetry collection that drew inspiration from Vedic literature.
There are a total of fifty eight poems. Some poems are deep and have a spiritual appeal to it. While others are capable of transporting readers to a fantastical world. Dr. Gaayathri Palla's imagination is boundless and reader can experience it while reading.
Themes range from self reflection, love, mysticism, Imagination etc. My favorites were "Love and Life" and " Night and Stars ". My only criticism is that some verses felt over adorned. It would have been good if too much complexity wasn't added to the vocabulary. It often affected the flow of reading. Nevertheless , it was a good, short yet dense poetry collection. Also book cover captures the essence of the poetry collection well and is gorgeous!! If you love reading poetry,then you should check this out. Recommended!

📓The writing style of the author is brilliant. She has used rich vocabulary which adds to the mood of reading the book. The poems are wonderful and written well Gayathri doesn't fail to engross the reader. You do feel every word that Gayathri writes and it is written with a sense of openness and vulnerability.
📓 The way the poems and verses evolve throughout the book, the depth of thoughts, is so unique and understandable. The emotions are very raw and I loved the authenticity and honesty in writing.I loved the section "Night and stars".I really love the whole book but I personally found this one very interesting.

The lion after all never leases to be a lion just because of a thorn in its paw.
Boundless by Dr. Gaayathri Palla is a volume of poems that speak about the boundless gratitude and love given to us by our omnipresent, our one and only creator of this world. Dr. Gaayathri Palla is immensely fond of India mythology and she has instilled parts of it in her poetry.
The poems are beautifully detailed and they aren’t complex. They are lucid and simple yet graceful in their own unique ways. The book has been divided into 6 parts which are
-Self Reflection
-Path of Seeking
-Night and stars
-Love and life
-Fantasy and Imagery
- Narratives
My favourite out of them was Path of Seeking because it spoke about a poet’s immense love towards god and how god’s only smile filled the poet’s life wholly. The book was a very short read and a delightful one. Though sometimes poetry confuses me, this one was very clear in its own statements and was even able to give out the emotion that the Author truly wanted the reader to feel. The cover of this book is also breathtaking as well as the title too is just perfect.
