Keywords

Abstract

Rejecting classicism completely and attainting distinctiveness is not possible because classicism is directly related to tradition and tradition is a cultural heritage. Zaidi is one of those 20th century poets who have manifested hues of individuality while still remaining intact with the roots. He started his poetry in the era when free verse and blank verse were in their developing phase. In his poetic collections, he experimented with form. He manifested his expectise by employing more than one type of meters in many poems. Sometimes he took a full meter (Saalam Bahrein) and varied the units in different lines of that poem. Thus, reading such poems gives us an idea about the poet's diverse temperament. This diversity did not let him give much time to the application of full meters. By variation of units in the accepted meters he could write verses effortlessly.
