I read the last part of this, Bharati, thinking of the importance of readers and hearers of poetry for the value of it. -Glen

You take birth from A fluid existence To a solid reality A full form baby The gestation period, the final thrust into the outer world and its gradual growth......! Oh How beautifully you have described the birth, growth and maturing of a poem! Well done dear friend!

The journey of a poem from conception to delivery has been well charted out in the poem. Between some words, space has disappeared, perhaps inadvertently, as also pointed out by poet Bri Edwards.

From a small impulse To a strong emotion You stay In the hollow of aheart Or in the deep Oceanic depth of mind......birth place of a poetry is so incisively delineated here. I appreciate this poem for which I have to visit once again.

Definition of poetry has been undergoing a number of changes without losing the subtle character. This poem is a rightful example.Let a thousand wonderous poems be born of you dear poetess...10

it seems PH has played havoc with the spacing (or i should say 'lack of spacing') between some of the words. but the fine poem has survived admirably and i send to MyPoemList. some favorite parts: " Oceanic depth of mind" & " A full form baby Still with immense possibility" :) bri p.s. I see " " can be part of a " wondrousexistence" ! ! Bri WOULD notice, of course.

From a small impulse poetry grows much faster and poetry motivates mind. Growing little by little we grow with much beauty and poetry also grows in mind in this way. With the mother's love child grows and with mind's love poetry too grows. Perception makes us great through poetry. This is an excellent poem very beautifully penned...10

Very nice. I especially like the part about when the young one is the right size, it can no longer stay inside. Marvelous metaphors! No wonder you are #465 on the top 500 poets!
