Kili-paattu is a style of poetry used in Malayalam where a story is told by a bird. A parrot, swan, a bee etc.

The style came to us first through Thunjath Ramanujan Ezhuthachan, who is accepted as the Father of Modern Malayalam Language.

The first episode begins the topic of the Season with an introduction to the style of poetry, and is a homage to the ones that came before us, and have granted us the life we have today.

*For fellow lovers of words, Logophiles of the world, brother and sisters, this part of the podcast will mostly be in the language of Malayalam, mother to millions, mother mine.

Be well. :)*
