A Poet's Recharge Poem by Khairul Ahsan
A Poet's Recharge
When a peacock dances,
With its tail and plumage spread out like a fan,
Oh! Does he at all care about where he began?
When a cuckoo coos,
With all her ardent passion poured into her song,
Oh! Does she care whether she is right or wrong?
But when a poet writes,
And the poem falls flat on his indifferent readership,
Oh! His morale takes a nosedive and goes into a dip.
When a reader loves a poem,
A poet's heart dances with his appreciative words,
And soars high in the sky, just like the flying birds.
His poem is like his child.
So, when a poem is delivered to the readers at large,
Please applaud, and give the poet a delightful recharge.

A peacock displays its extravagant eye-spotted tail covert feathers as part of courtship, to attract and impress the peahen. It has iridescent blue-green or green colored plumage. The peacock tail ('train')is not the tail quill feathers but the highly elongated upper tail covert feathers. The 'eyes' are best seen when the peacock fans its tail (Wikipedia) .
