What is most appealing about "Our Casuarina Tree?"

I find
myself persuaded by the element of nostalgia for the past that is featured in the love of the
tree in the poem.  As I get older, I find myself searching and seeking out those objects that
tell a narrative that is relegated to the domains of what was.  In the horrific conditions of
what is and the uncertainty of what can be, I think that discovery of these objects, fossils
that show a pattern of existence and evidence of life, become extremely important to finding
happiness in being.  This is where I think that the poem is most appealing.  The tree carries
with it the remembrances of a past time that can no longer be replicated.  It is precisely for
this reason that the speaker, presumably Dutt, has nothing but love for the tree.  The tree
represents a portal, a door through which some connection with a time that is vastly different
from what is and what can be is experienced.  This love of something that has a transformative
effect in the subjective of the individual, but nothing in the external is what I find
devastatingly beautiful about the vision of the tree in the poem.  It is one in which there is a
pain about the past, but only because the past was something of pure joy and bliss.  The tree is
seen as a "carousel" of sorts, something that we enter and are transported within its
movements to a point in time where we know what it means to love and what it feels like to be
loved.  As the speaker has become older, she understands how painful being in the world is
without such an element, which is why she has such an attachment to the tree.  As I get older, I
find myself understand more and more what attachment is there and seek to find my own as she has
found hers.  In this, I think that the most appealing aspect of the poem is
evident.
