Village Libraries. Poem by Gangadharan nair Pulingat..

Village Libraries, treasure houses of knowledge
Village people read the books and entertained
But village libraries are in slow death on neglect
In fact it is the death bell of Village culture.

Books once the important source of knowledge
Ready to read and know the facts
Also the novels and short stories
Together with the great poems ever relevant
The great minds of knowledge they knew
Through the Books they took from the libraries.

The Library movements were once the pride
Where the people in craze of knowledge gathered
Discussed in groups and made their own conclusions
About a new book or versions on poetry relevance.

Unfortunate to say Libraries are in slow death
Digital libraries in schools and colleges new trend
The scientific and technological advancement we pride
In fact village libraries also have to provide
The opportunities to get good read materials
In printed Books or Public Digital library facilities.

Development of Knowledge centers are going fast
But old generations still pursue the printed books
Which they can easily accessible and refer in comfort
Without the hindrance to their daily jobs in fields
Or factories, and other labor opportunities
In their leisure times they can enjoy the books.

Village Libraries an important opportunity
To read the works of famous writers and poets
Their articles, poems, stories are good sources
To make the mind so beautiful and so lovely
To them, their children in study in such easy
Make village Libraries in update standard of Knowledge.
