A Letter To William Shakespeare
Enlivening hymns
that inspired,
Exalting emotions
breathed life into,
Your great pen
as I longed to read,
In my dreams
to you connected,
Enlightened my mind
your words with my heart rhymed,
Trust my letter reaches and allures
your soul sits beside me here,
Dear poet Shakespeare !
Your poetic grandeur and
Philosophical splendour,
Dramatic literary playwright,
Howsoever hard I tried,
Unable to cope up current time,
certain forms of poetry
I could never write,
Is it the form
that mattered,
Even if may the
emotions lie shattered,
Invigorate and energise
whisper softly to apprise,
Dear poet Shakespeare!
Did you ever learn notes ?
Or naturally became
to be known as quotes?
Should I nurture my mind
to shape verse into a kind ?
Or let smoothly flow
the way heart may guide ?
Can you once holdon to
my pen and teach me write ?
Just in order to put up
ideas shining very bright,
Dear poet Shakespeare !
