Poetry - a Poets Autobiography-W

A poet  is often bombarded by the meaning of words
He got to have a physical relationship with language
With the structural elements like couplets and stanzas
Using imagery, rhymes of myriad emotions to manage.

Language and structure with imagination and expression
In my veins like an unfertilized egg I need to feel poetry,
With traffic-jammed in my thought-polluted brain session
I strip teased my desire that breathes into the oral cavity.

The things touched with love will surely have a voice
Touch the strings of a violin, feel how music is created
Strong wind creates lyrical sound among trees to rejoice
At the mere touch of love, every poet gets mused.

Poetry is words in best order, best words in best order
It is language at its most distilled and most powerful
There is no denying, poetry says more in words fewer, 
If your life is burning well, poetry is just the ash cool.

It is indeed a spontaneous over flow of powerful feelings
Taking its origin from emotions recollected in tranquility
Boned with ideas, nerved and blooded with emotions
Held together by soft, tough skin of words of quality.   

One can’t give order to a person to write a poem instant
As much as command birth of a child to woman pregnant.

This is very nice! It touches on the chord that is within me, the poet that I am. I love the versatility of poetry written by many different pens, and although most of us will never be rich in mammon, we will be rich in love and faith, for we pen our emotional charge for others to read, to uplift, encourage, and sometime just to let out our own pent up emotions! Thank you for writing this inspirational piece!

The forms, the words, the feelings -- all the things that go through a poet's mind -- are described so vividly here, Dr. Ram. What a thought-provoking and insighfully penned poem! And I love the title too! We do come to know each other so well through poetry, don't we? Wonderful work! Love, Carolyn
