The Laburnum Top is one of the best compositions of Ted Hughes. This poem is about a repaying relationship between the Laburnum tree and the Goldfinch bird. The best thing in this poem is that it highlights the interdependence of each other. We all are dependent on nature and if we feel that nature depends on us, we are mistaken.

THE PRESENTATION WAS MADE IN 2012 AS A SCHOOL PROJECT. THE TOPIC IS THE SUMMARY OF THE POEM BY KAMALA DAS- MY MOTHER AT 66. GO THROUGH THE WHOLE PRESENTATION FOR A THOROUGH UNDERSTANDING OF THE CONCEPT.
The poem is a reminiscence of the poetess’ grandmother and their ancestral home at Malabar in Kerala. Her memory of love she received from her grandmother is associated with the image of her ancestral home, where she had passed some of the happiest days of her life, and where her old grandmother had showered her love and affection. With the death of her grandmother the house withdrew into silence. When her grandmother died, even the house seemed to share her grief, which is poignantly expressed in the phrase “the House withdrew”. The house soon became desolate and snakes crawled among books. Her blood became cold like the moon because there was none to love her the way she wanted.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

2. Kamala Das (1934-2009) was born in Malabar, Kerala. She is
recognised as one of India’s foremost poets. Her works are
known for their originality, versatility and the indigenous
flavour of the soil. She has published many novels and short
stories. She wrote under the pen name “Madhavi Kutty”.
3. Introduction to the Poem
My mother at sixty six is written by Kamala Das
who is famous for capturing complexities of human
relationships. The poem my mother at sixty six is
one of the finest examples of the human bonding,
especially that of a mother and daughter. It
describes the pain and fear of the poet - of losing
her mother due to harsh reality of life which is
death.
4. Driving from my parent’s home
To Cochin last Friday morning,
I saw my mother beside me.
Beside: alongside
5. doze, open mouthed, her face ashen like that
of a corpse and realised with pain that she was as
old as she looked but soon
Doze: nap
Ashen: pale
Corpse: dead body
6. Firstly, when the poet is on her way to the cochin airport with
her old mother sitting beside her, she looks at her closely and
presents before us her image.
She compares her with a corpse. (similie is a figure of speech
to show comparison between her mother’s face and a corpse.)
As she looks at her mother’s pale and pallid face, she is struck
with the horror and pain of losing her. The mother with the
dozing face and open mouth is compared to a corpse. Here, the
poet shows the typical love and affection which is present in a
mother-daughter relation.
7. She looked but soon
put that thought away, and
looked out at Young
Trees sprinting, the merry children spilling
out of their homes
8. The poet is pained and shifts her attention outside the car in
order to drive out the negative feelings. She changes her sad
mood .The scene outside the window is of growing life and
energy. The rapidly sprinting trees alongside the merrily playing
children symbolize life, youth and vitality. The poet here is
reminded of her own childhood when her mother had been young
whereas now she is encircled with the fear of losing her and that
has made her insecure.
9. but after the airport’s
security check, standing a few yards away, I looked again at her,
wan, pale
as a late winter’s mooft and felt that old
familiar ache, my childhood’s fear, but all I said was, see you
soon,Amma
all I did was smile and smile and smile..
10. The poet is feeling the pain of separation, leaving her mother and
going. Also, her childhood fear of losing her mother which she feels
that earlier was temporary but now, could be forever as she could
die of old age, is haunting her. She is so pained that it is natural for
her to cry but keeping a brave front she hides her tears and smiles.
She bids farewell to her mother and keeping her hope of seeing her
again alive, says “see you soon, Amma”. She hides her sorrow as
she does not want to create a painful environment for her mother
and conveys her that as she is enjoying her life similarly her mother
should also be happy and enjoy her life.
