A Poem Poem by Nikunj Sharma

A Poem

Rating: 5.0


In the heart of a musical beat
Along length of a short breath
In womb of a moment discreet
And deafening silence of death.

In the swirling spin of a top
In the rolling flow of the river
And the mystical plop of a drop
In the timeless gleam and glimmer

In the words buried within; unspoken
In the dreams unthought, unseen
In the heart shattered smashed and broken
In smoke behind the blinding screen

In the expanse of the precipice edge
in speeding minute and fugitive run
In thoughts by the window ledge
in the frozen gaze at the horizon

In shades of spring and fallen leaves
In everything and nothingness
In smiling flowers and buzzing bees
One can find a poem, nothing less.

Yes dear Nikunj, poetry lies hidden in both Nature and in things that surrounds us! The poet's keen observation gives it expression through the emotive power of his words! Only this morning I was reading my old notes on the subject of Poetry! 10! -Raj Nandy

not just these, everything tangible intangible has poetry concealed provided one has a poetic heart...i loved reading these lines. the great telugu poet srisri writes-nothing is undeserving of poetry including a puppy, a cake of soap, and a match stick!

The poet becomes natures voice.....if he listens she will whisper, if he seeks she will disclose, if he loves she will bestow.....wonderful write! ! ! ! ! !

I like the flow of your poem and the idea within it, that any moment or place can become a poem in the hands and head of a poet-nice! ~Christine
