Wow--Hearty Congratulations for this marvelous poem being selected as the Poem of the Day!
Thank you so much Pallavi for your heartwarming comment. So glad that you read the poem.
It is a shame that this poem is not included in Best Poems of Members!
Congratulations, Savitaji. This poem published on PoemHunter in 2012, has been recognised with Poem Of The Day today. Better late than never. POD gave an occasion for a revisit and I enjoyed reading it once again. As Dillipji remarks, this is a timeless poem
Thank you so much Unnikrishnan. I too am happy that PH recognized this poem. This is one of my favorite poem, but I think it is reader's appreciation that matters most and I am very grateful for that.
Right now I'm enjoying the music of rainfall on a metal roof! Adding your poem to the mix harmonized nicely!
The extra 1/2 of a star is because you've been a faithful friend to me on PH. But, do you 'have to' use so many words for which I am not sure of their definitions! ? ? bri : )
There is a thing called dictionary! You haven't forgotten its use!
...'Both are substitute for my inability To sit quiet and enjoy the stillness.' I'm torn by my need to decide between awarding you 3 1/2 and 4 stars. Alas i guess I'll have to choose 4. ;)
your rating destroyed the perfect five rating of the poem! Sob Sob! Don't count on my being faithful any more!
some lines I particularly enjoyed: 'The trill coming out of the keys Would probably be as smudged and muddled As the writing coming out of this pen' and...
I love this sweet poem dear madam. My great pleasure to pay multiple visits to this wonderful poem.
Lazy afternoons, life and music, piano and poetry, all a combination of supporting ally retaliating time's rudeness
That sounds so perfect in phantasmagoria The trill coming out of the keys Would probably be as smudged and muddled As the writing coming out of this pen....it gives me immense pleasure to read this lovely composition again and again....timeless piece!
Thank you Dr. Swain. I so very much appreciate your reading this poem again. So glad you enjoy it.
I love this musical instrument so also this sweet poem!
NOW, to make up for my below-5-stars rating, I sent this to my 'favorites'! ! ! : )))))
