Yuddha Prasad Mishra: Poet of nature and change

Poet Yuddha Prasad Mishra is one of the top Nepali poets. He is renowned for his naturalistic and transformative poetry. In the first stage of his poetic practice, he wrote some poems influenced by Hindu spiritual thought, but at this time, his poems revealed naturalistic idealism. Senior Nepali critics such as Hrishikesh Upadhyay, Taranath Sharma, Krishnachandra Singh Pradhan, Vasudev Tripathi, Ravilal Adhikari, and Mohanraj Sharma have praised poet Mishra's naturalistic and pure nature poetry. They believe that Mishra has created naturalistic romantic poetry of a level that can be placed in the ranks of the Mahakavi Lakshmi Prasad Devkota and Yugkavi Siddhicharan Shrestha.
