There is a certain feel of the poem that brings to the light the idea that a timeless quality of the tree and the world around it possess.  I think that this is what I find the most fascinating about the poem for this might be how India could be described to the West‚ and given

    As I read in the previewing on page 131 it states the ginkgo tree is the only survivor of a species of prehistoric past. It is also very different from the willow.

For example‚ if a professor asks a student to write about his or her dream house‚ the student must provide a well elaborate description of how is his or her dream house‚ providing details about size‚ measurement‚ weather‚ etc. I agree with
