One of the prominent themes in Sarojini Naidu’s poems is the vibrancy of Indian cultural tradition. In her poem ‘The Bangle Sellers’ she has presented that vibrancy through the various colours of bangles that girls and women of different ages like to wear in a typical Indian society. This very purpose has allowed the poet to present some well-crafted colour imageries throughout the poem.
