A 500th Poem Comments

Words may go down as natural flow It will not deliver any unjust blow Cordial relation and harmony must rule the day My creation may find nothing or something to say --- great job10+++

Cool rhythm, like a heart.

beautiful flow like water!

I am firmly placed by the grace of God Friends and readers have given good nod I was nothing when put first step forward

What can be remembered more on this day? The person who led me to walk on this way? ...nice poem...10

Why should I not celebrate it as an auspicious occasion? Completion of 500th poem should not end my passion, , , great achievement....10

Poet must find space in real scene It must have reflection and clearly seen My work may be judged tomorrow I must have simple ethics to follow in one of my poems i have the conclusive couplet written likewise. Even the plainest verse must propound The hard realities of the day. The unturned pages of tomorrow Must avoid the pangs of sorrow. A poet can either escape into an ethereal world or drown himself in the whirlpool turmoil of the society. The first attitude attempts to have harmony and self-revelation. it needs insight and a soaring spirit. But the second needs a tough spirit and a soft conscience. It has to fight without reason and passion to fulfill the Promise of a devoted soul and spirit to search endlessly for the answer. it is the search for creating a newer world which will make this world a haven and if possible a heavan to live in. such souls fight, knowing fully well, that they are fighting a losing battle. yet they do it with an affirmation that their noble vision and mission will be acknowledged by the world and it will appease the soul that had had fought desperately but undauntedly. anyway in a battle one can win while the other loses. it is noble to fight a losing battle rather than be a coward and a slave without salvation.

Having written your 500th poem is a feat in itself. Congratulations. This poem is at its rhyming best. Thanks for sharing. May you write more for us to enjoy and appreciate.

Congratulations Hasmukh Congratulations.

congratulations, hasmukh, it's always a joy to read you, and I shall continue to do so - seek you out as i wait for poem no 1000 - hope I'll be there.

Hi Hasmukh - Well done! ! 500 is a big bench mark - never attained in age but in some thinga attainable - 500 runs in cricket - 500 postage stamps in an album - 500 paintings and for some 5oo poems. But how - you ask - is this possible. Your own creative brain - yes - but also the one who held you - your family - your friends - you readers - your commentaters and last but not least GOD (V 7) . Without God we are nothing and can achieve nothing. I like the linguistic structure and the rhyme and the rhythm. The first six verses look back and the second six look forward to the 1000th. To continue (V 8) to flow freely (V 9) to find space (V 10) to strive hard (V 11) and to go with the natural flow (V 12) . Thanks for sharing - yours in Poetry - JOHN
