Poetry Writes, Poetry Reads, Poetry Lives Poem by Bharati Nayak

Mystical and lyrical; I feel that I have absorbed beauty here even as the clouds absorb water. Beauty that I will carry with me and which will not return until it has touched some dry place. Yes, poetry lives for poetry. Well done, a beautiful piece.

I so appreciate the prayerful extension of my original poem in your version. You opened the poem to a larger frame of reference and thereby tested its strength of purpose. You became a co-creator of this enlarged version of the poem and thereby validated its meaning.

Poetry lives for poetry and lives remembered

Inspired by poet Daniel Brick you have composed a very beautiful poem that attracts the readers to go through it over and over again. I feel the following lines impressive. They go floating far and far to unknown lands And poetry writes for them who read Poetry lives for poetry And daughter remembers Du Fu Thank you madam.

POETRY LIVES FOR POETRY AND DAUGHTER REMEMBERS DU FU - That is such a beautiful conclusion: so many good things are united in those two lines, not least of which are father and daughter in a spiritual way. But it also shows the sheer strength of poetry, even the stubbornness of poetry to honor human values. I feel a universal consolation spread out from your poem. It's not just two people from ancient China, it's all of us that need to be consoled and that's what poets do so well - use words to comfort and strengthen. I.m going to put your poem next to mine! !
