Poetry Writes, Poetry Reads, Poetry Lives Comments

I so appreciate the prayerful extension of my original poem in your version. You opened the poem to a larger frame of reference and thereby tested its strength of purpose. You became a co-creator of this enlarged version of the poem and thereby validated its meaning.

Poetry lives for poetry and lives remembered

Inspired by poet Daniel Brick you have composed a very beautiful poem that attracts the readers to go through it over and over again. I feel the following lines impressive. They go floating far and far to unknown lands And poetry writes for them who read Poetry lives for poetry And daughter remembers Du Fu Thank you madam.

Inspired by poet Daniel Brick you have composed a very beautiful poem that attracts the readers to go through it over and over again. I feel the following lines impressive. They go floating far and far to unknown lands And poetry writes for them who read Poetry lives for poetry And daughter remembers Du Fu Thank you for sharing.

POETRY LIVES FOR POETRY AND DAUGHTER REMEMBERS DU FU - That is such a beautiful conclusion: so many good things are united in those two lines, not least of which are father and daughter in a spiritual way. But it also shows the sheer strength of poetry, even the stubbornness of poetry to honor human values. I feel a universal consolation spread out from your poem. It's not just two people from ancient China, it's all of us that need to be consoled and that's what poets do so well - use words to comfort and strengthen. I.m going to put your poem next to mine! !

So much love flows through line after line of the most beautiful resonating phrases. Your heart beats in this poem, Bharati. The pulse of your love for poetry and its power to communicate ideals to the family of man permeates this gem. 10++++++++++++++ and a place on my list of Fav.

Legendary poetry transcending generations, writing-reading and reincarnating, youngest daughter absorbing the father's poetry like a sponge, with mind, heart and soul, silent rain's falling rapidly from pregnant clouds on unknown offspring's land, somewhere there's a bright warrior's legacy shining over the rainbow, converting dark reality into justice and eloquence, and reconciling a lost daughter with her unknown father– ad vitam Aeternam.

Mystical and lyrical; I feel that I have absorbed beauty here even as the clouds absorb water. Beauty that I will carry with me and which will not return until it has touched some dry place. Yes, poetry lives for poetry. Well done, a beautiful piece.

A beautiful bond shared by words, thoughts and poems. Distant doesn't matter when words flow from the heart. It does reach every heart which beats for love. Thanks for sharing Bharati and now I'am curious to read Daniel Brick's poem. thanks for introducing us to new poets.10++++

A lovely write that depicts how a father n daughter are connected through poetry, though living away from each other. Poetry truly has this magical power to bring people closer. I haven't read Daniel's poem but i'll make it a point to read it. Thank you for this amazing write. A big 10.

Thanks Bharati Nayak for showing me the way to Daniel Brick's glorious poem, which I read and rated just a few minutes ago. Your poem is equally wonderful and complements the thoughts of Brick. It is really very nice to see two poets share the same frequency and paying tributes to each other. A great experience. (10)

Inspirational! Thanks for sharing this poem with us.

A beautiful poetry on father and daughter, truly inspirational, communicating through poetry is one of a kind. a lovely piece of poetry.

POETRY HOLDS HER - This is an amazing line. We know father and daughter cannot embrace because they are miles apart but through a poem he sends her they experience the intimacy of their love. // This poem is the ideal companion to A MUSIC IS MADE: both poems express the spiritual depth and breadth of poetry, both probe the mystery dimension in which we live. Your words echo Shakespeare's lines: WE WILL TAKE UPON OURSELVES THE MYSTERY OF THINGS AS IF WE ARE GOD'S SPIES. // It is impossible to be cynical or indifferent after reading this poem: it informs the mind that human beings are good, and it opens the heart so that love can be given and received. If someone asks you, Why do you write poetry, Bharati? just show them this poem. The person will have the best possible answer! !

The cycle constantly renews as with love. This is a truly magnificent poem, Bharati, the best I've read for a long time.

Indeed poetry lives for poetry......and daughter remembers....One of your best poems, Bharatiji...10+++

A very wonderful work. And daughter remembers... Tang poetry, Tang poets... and more, all the classics will last long if we keep on the poetic spirit into eternity. Enjoyed reading your work.
