Or whatever is written,

Secret truth of the old literarily highlighted. It takes a bold poet's heart and gallant brow to undertake the adventure of throwing lights on a theme as sacred. Much kudos, wordsmith.

Poet only talk about truth, it might be the beauty of their imagination, or the truth of their feeling, the hint for their mind, happened or not, beauty or ugly, that is the privilege of poet to reveal in words. Yr poem has a deep meaning and lead to deep thought. Thanks for sharing

A very impressive and expressive poem and poet... You actually shouted what really is inside your heart without any hesitation and branches. It goes directly to what poets and our connections are. You're such a great model to inspire me to write more from what I REALLY feel as a poet. Applause to you!

Once again this is good writing. I would like to make a comment though without being critical of the poem. Truth is always beauty, always has been, always will be. Beauty, however, is not always truth. Beauty is sometimes merely skin deep. Sometimes we need to look beneath the surface. Many unattractive people have hearts of gold, that's where their beauty lies, deep within. Dirt, mud, clay, earth, may seem ugly but they sustain micro-organisms without which mankind would perish. even the ugly things on earth have their inner beauty, you just have to peep beneath the surface. While i don't entirely agree with the...beauty is truth.... element of your poem, it still sends out a powerful message. An enjoyable read.

@Ruma Chaudhuri Thank you very much for reading my poem and evaluating it so generously. I am highly elated, specially by your likening my thoughts and reflections to poet Kazi Nazrul Islam's 'Jadi ar banshi na baje'.

Beautiful.... It is a lovely way of conveying some important life lessons and finding appreciation in them. What I like most about this is that it permits the reader to explore their own relationship with the journey of their own thoughts.

Whatever the poet's eyes see, And his mind imagines, And his pen elaborates, Or whatever is written, In his unseen note book, Are all true and beautiful? .... Yes. This is a beautiful thought and the reflection of that. Same as Kazi Nazrul Islam told in his poem, 'Jadi ar banshi na baje'. The poet knows deep in his heart, The colorful lotus that dances afloat, Has her root anchored in the dirty mud. Only above water she blossoms from the bud. Excellent. 'Beauty is truth, truth beauty', Poets glorify beauty with truth. knowing or not, the root of beauty, May lie buried in ugliness, in sooth. Really an excellent thought as well as rhythm and words. I really love the poem. Specially the line...'Poets glorify beauty with truth. knowing or not, the root of beauty, Thanks for sharing.Ruma

Love this part: 'Beauty is truth, truth beauty'. Beauty is subjective and depends on how or where you look at it.
