Best Poems Poem by Pradip Chattopadhyay

Best Poems

Rating: 4.8


Best poems are lost in the morn's toothbrush
wash away with rinse fade like first crush
run away with the trail of the bus you miss
fly with summer clouds melt like first kiss!

Best poems are lost with the winds' dusty blow
half seen half known through half shut window
burn away like fire on a long winter night
lure with contour eluding full sight!

Best poems are lost in the crescent moon's glow
when your mind is too weary head hits pillow
evanesce like youthful time smoothness of face
undecoded hieroglyph untraced address!

Best poems are lost like petals in the rain
in the race for vain pride rush for self gain
seen through smoked glass pages unread
crumbling with time wasted like weed!

Yes, some of the best of poems are lost like that. Some thoughts, which can muster our mental focus along with the availability of the pen and paper or internet access instantly, may turn out to be the next best poems. @ Lorraine Colon, 'And it's always the poem that got away that bothers our minds the most.' - I couldn't agree more with you, Lora!

Sometimes inspiration comes, but we fail to write down the words, and we know a great potential poem has been lost. That happens to all of us. And it's always the poem that got away that bothers our minds the most.
