A very truthful statement is made here with all honesty.The poet expressed here the kind of intense connection and involvement she has with poem all the time and in any situation. And that itself made her so versatile in writing so many poems and in such an ease with eloquence.We all poetry lovers should take a teaching from this very valuable statement..... A true ARS - Poetica.

Actually, Amitava you are one of the very few that has seen me writing in person. No one would believe how I do it unless seeing it done. I appreciate your comments very much, so glad we are poetical friends.

This is your ARS POETICA - it's a fervent statement of commitment to poetry and WHY it is so necessary to write poems. Whatever effort is not required strikes outsiders as ridiculous, waste of time, what's the use? You know those reactions. Well, an ARS POETICA is a poet's answer to those nay-sayers and doubters, and just to make it crystal clear to them why we poets value poetry, we put our ARS POETICA in verse rather than prose. (BTW the first poet to use that term was Horace - that's why it's in Latin - I studied Latin in high school and translated Horace, that's how I learned about it,) Did I say your poem is eloquent? ! That eloquence is part of the ARS POETICA tradition.
