Abstract: Vikram Seth's poetry has changed a lot over the years. At first, he used formal styles with strict rules for rhythm and rhyme. But later, he started trying out new things, like free verse and different types of poetry. This shift shows how he has grown as a poet, letting him explore deeper feelings and bigger ideas. In his newer poems, Seth pays a lot of attention to how words and their structure work together to create meaning. This shows that he keeps challenging himself as a poet and keeps finding new ways to make his poetry richer and more interesting. In Vikram Seth's poetry, he often uses traditional forms like sonnets with rhyme and meter. He tends to focus more on the beauty of nature and common things rather than himself. Even when he addresses serious topics, his writing feels light and refreshing.

Keywords: Themes, love, identity, social issues, time, culture, writer, society, postmodern, inclusive, secular humanism and uncomfortableness.
