Sadly, our lives have become too competitive these days to allow us time for poetry reading or writing. The few that still read or write, do it from their love for poetry. When a reader can relate himself or herself to a poem or to some lines of a poem, s/he develops some fondness for the poet as well. This is deemed as an achievement for an aspiring poet, and serves as an inspiration to him/her.
Poets enjoy a unique friendship And fraternity at home and abroad, Their words can cheer wistful minds And bind by friendship's invisible cord. - - - -Yes, Poets enjoy a unique bond with the readers.A profound poem, thanks for sharing. I really appreciate your wonderful comments on my poems.Hearty thanks Khairul Ahsan ji.
@Bharati Nayak, Thanks for quoting those lines from my poem. We are poets, we are readers as well, of each other's poems. Thus we we develop a unique bond among ourselves. We get familiar to some of the poets and their style of writing so much that we can say who the poet could be, by reading a few lines from the poem. Even we can identify the poet or the reader from his comments. Such is the bond.
Profound words, so very true. Loved your awesome poem, describing the heart of a poet.
