Poetry Is A Rare Blessing In Disguise! Poem by Ramesh T A

Dream of medical practitioner or dream of physicist aiming high
When shattered to pieces by obligations of joint family system,
Poetry only comes to the rescue to compensate all losses of life
For one in the world interested in Nature, literature and culture!

Like diamond formed under great pressure and high temperature long,
A poet is born to express brilliant ideas and wisdom for the world to
Know unknown facts, noble aspects of life and things invaluable
That are otherwise hidden forever in darkness having no idea of existence!

Such a high place Poetry allots to a great soul left in the world alone
With no way to go and no direction to take to have fulfilment in life;
Poetry is God given gift sanctioned to one as a great blessing in disguise
One is destined to have to render greatest service to humanity ever!

Perhaps only a chosen few has this rare chance to hold this great post
That fate and fortune together bless one to enjoy great bliss and do rare feat!
