There is a streak of poetry in my vein Just as there is poetry in the air And there is poetry in the rain There is poetry in the first smile of dawn And poetry in the soft rays of the moon There is poetry in a blade of grass And poetry in the balmy evening breeze, There is poetry riding on the roaring bluegreen waves And poetry whispering in dark mountain caves There is poetry in the smile of a child Just as there is poetry in the deep green wild Poetry is music and music is magic ….. Poetry means everything to me My sweet, tantalizing, bewitching lady. Subhojit Kar |

 An act of poetry Mark R. Slaughter Ruin is what we need – Despair is what we feed Upon in poetry A shock resets the nerves – Helps remould the curves Of written art Catharsis helps portray – Acting out a play On expurgation Tears or hidden fears Release the bottled years To ink a page: The pen be our salvation. |
