Mahtab Bangalee Poet Quatrain

Streets of the Pen

In the streets of the pen, poems are scattered
Some of the poems I can greet 
Some of the poems I can feed
In the streets of the pen, poems are scattered

Some of the poems I can greet
From the mountain of immortal love
Where flying the happiest white dove
Some of the poems I can greet

From the mountain of immortal love
The poems come like an endless stream of fountain
There all verses feel happy artlessly the poetic brain
From the mountain of immortal love

The poems come like an endless stream of fountain
Where the love and dream live together
Where the heart makes a heaven of care
The poems come like an endless stream of fountain

Where the love and dream live together
There the poetic world paints a peaceful canvas
There, truth implores the righteous law onrush
Where the love and dream live together

There the poetic world paints a peaceful canvas
Where the poems help to teach me truly
Where I want to live spontaneously
There the poetic world paints a peaceful canvas

Where the poems help to teach me truly
In the streets of the pen, poems are scattered
In the thoughtful wisdom, lies are shattered
Where the poems help to teach me truly

In the streets of the pen, poems are scattered
Some of the poems I can greet 
Some of the poems I can feed
In the streets of the pen, poems are scattered

Caren Krutsinger January 2, 2021 at 4:35 AM I had never heard of a "Catena Rondo " but I heartily approve!

Gershon Wolf December 23, 2020 at 4:49 PM 'Where poems are scattered, lies are shattered.' A noble sentiment, indeed! Lovely penned, Mahtab! Best always, Gershon

Anitha Jayasankar December 22, 2020 at 9:36 AM This is so well penned 'streets of the pen'. Catena Rondo form I just enjoyed reading Mahtab. I wish to write in this form too, someday. God bless. Have a great day ~ Ani
