Crows are many but Nightingales are rare in poetry!
Poets are the prophets of mankind guiding all safe,
Whose prophesies never fail and happen in the future;
They make a mark forever and have a place forever!
Shakespeare, mirror of people reflects truth even now;
Miltonic music in words roars truth of his name ever!
Wordsworth mystically probes Nature to say divine truth!
Coleridge magically bridges dreams past, present and future!
Browning’s monologue, my last Duchess touches even now;
His Moon and everybody’s Moon maroons men in love!
Musical words with meaningful message moves hearts in
Majestic poetry of the past forever and ever inspiring all!
Somewhere sometime somehow lively poem hits lovely;
But the blare of blabbers blurs the beauty of it soon here!
true words about true poets..their vision are deep, they say what they see and then all will reap what the poets plant...beautiful poem..very well penned
What you say is very true! I am also an old English Literature student like you! Browning's -'My Last Dutches ' is a masterpiece! Like a sprakling diamond it shall never lose its sheen! 10+ -Raj Nandy (Are you the same Mr Ramesh who posts poems in Bologi.com as well?)
