On passing by a crowded lane,
I greet people and their dreams;
Lest some call us poets vain,

The power that poetry shares will never be fully understood but is always felt. Thanks for another great poetic share my friend
Dear Subroto, Actually I was in a great poetic lethargic mood contributing nothing either to the society or the family. This is a good poem about poets, a compact one with a message in last fpur lines: 'now the poet will move the unmoved, and speak like the tongue of the mind, they'ii ensure their efforts be proved that they speak for humankind' Thanks for sharing. A good read always deserves A 10-RAJKUMAR
It was a pleasure reading this poem, it flowed, which so few poems do these days. Great write
So true! Even if some poets are remembered longer than others or some are more revered, it's never about the poet is only ever about what the poet desperately wants others to understand, and so he/she uses the language to strip or embelish on truths, give a different slant to make others understand what you mean! Great reading!
The poet’s message will travel Longer than I hope they do; Poets love to unravel What many won’t undo. laughing out loud, oh sweet sanity at last..lol lights the way...wonderful....John
Spattered skills of a poet everywhere in the poem and and an air of self-critic and counterpoised critic for poetry is sensed here.All in all a compact poem with deep smack of sarcasm.Full score.
An inspired poem by a poet with intelligence, conviction and an innate 'feel' for language. What a blessed role we poets share in our special kind of wordsmithing which picks the eyes out of ideas presents them succinctly and harmonically. Your craft does you credit. Love, Allie ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
