Quill Of Poetic Touch

    Perfect Poet is not narrator but created
    Piercing the heart of listener or reader
    with poetic touch in emotive beauty.
    Might be specified as a poet’s duty.
                                          
    Poem must sparkle in mind of reader as gem.
   The poet should hold that spirit to carry his aim.
    Poem to resonate with rhythm of heart and soul
     Unspoken syllable to voice for perception.

      Looking at a log on ground, a guy may say
     ‘ dry piece of wood is lying in front of me ‘
      but a poet may say ‘bough has lost life and lustre.’
      That’s the observation on perspective of poet.

      The statement ‘Some one has finished sumptuous meal,
       leaving no remnants ‘ will be adorned , if a poet adds
        ‘ Even ant is weeping, while walking on empty plate.’
          That’s the poetic touch on muse , using metaphor.
