I'll 'have to' look up another poem from you someday, but not tonight, my friend. : ) bri
Well, Savita, i must say 'Composing a comment on PH is still sometimes a struggle.' Do i dare read the poem AGAIN? ;)
Ha! I was thinking 'illusions' when i read 'allusions'! And 'augury' i may have never used before. Also, 'aesthetic' is not a word i have a command of. All in all the poem posed problems for me. ; (
You have chosen interesting and insightful allusions and filled the body of your poem with your own unique thoughts and ideas!
Anyhow the allusion has so beautifully been applied.To see a World in a Grain of Sand And a Heaven in a Wild Flower, Hold Infinity in the palm of your hand And Eternity in an hour. Beautiful
Excellent poem..Indeed, We mortals are the one touched and moved By its grief and joy.
Top stars dear Savita ji, for your poem of 'An experiment with allusions.'
A poetic delight combining of brilliant minds of William Blake- Auguries of Innocence, Shakespear's 'All the world is a stage', Upanishad and Aurobindo's Savithri - makes this poem a shinning gem.e
Delusion when your eyes see only the dazzling lid. Truth lies hidden inside.
A poem filled with high philosophy, 'Hiranmayena paatrena satyasyapihitam mukham'
Indeed ma'am allusions make poem look good. Your try is awesome. Inspiring me too to try one.
‘The world in a grain of sand Or a heaven in a wild flower' Auguries Of Innocence William Blake EXCELLENCE TO HIM CNVEY KINDLY FOR THIS ILLUMINATION AND YOU ALLUSION BASIS OF REMEMBRANCE
A great philosophocal write that puts spotlight on the established truth that was once advocated by the great Shakespeare through his timeless creation..so brilliantly presented. Top score!
It is refreshing to see how you handle weighty topics in a poem--the poem still glides while delving deep into weighty topics---now this is great writing...5 star poem for sure
