Every Poet In You Quenches a Fire

It was quite a time when with my mind you used to rhyme and in the tune of my heart you sign. That time was quite long when I thought the words to me belong and I could compose a million song. It was such a feel! to bare my soul to words with great zeal put my Self in words, nothing to conceal. A thrill beyond words! when you believe you can capture worlds and raise the sharpest of them as swords. You stand on your own empire as every poet in you quenches a fire and for avid readers, a pleasure not to expire. Dare I now raise my pen? till a voice grumbles into my den! do I have to ride those paths again? Dare I, the very words blame? not to have met the poet's flame! or, the rhymist having a solo aim shaping verses into a frame and their intense fire tame! The words when denied their vent an ink of a common bent a rose of a predictable scent a music of no content a love of no intent.

Your poem my dear Besma lends tangibility to the thoughts and the words that visualize it. 'Every Poet in you quenches a Fire', a strong theme that runs through every poet's veins.I do think at some stage every poet questions whether they are poets or not? Are they using the right words to convey what they are trying to say? I read a beautiful saying the other day...'I am not a Poet, I have become Poetry.' You my dear friend are well and truly a Poet, who lives poetry. Congratulations on POTD on your brilliant poem. In awe as always....Maria Hugs
