Poetry Is Immortal Poem by Khairul Ahsan
Poetry Is Immortal
Since Time immemorial,
All the poetry that have been written,
Conceived, pronounced or proclaimed,
In languages and signs known and unknown,
All their letters bear
The molten essence of the poet's mind.
All their punctuation marks bear
The exhalation from the poet's heart.
All their words bear a history, an epic.
Be that poem one of immaculate joy,
Be that poem one of perfect love,
Be that poem one of pathetic plight,
In all cases it comes out trampling the heart,
And ultimately disappears beyond the horizon,
To find a place in the outer space, perhaps,
And hang on there till eternity,
To vindicate, when called upon,
As a witness to the poet's pellucid, immortal mind.

@Abdulrazak Aralimatti, Thank you very much for reading my poem and sharing your thoughts on it. I am much inspired.
@Roseann Shawiak, Thank you very much for your generous appreciation of my poem. I have been much inspired by your thoughts. 'Portraying every aspect of life through the orchestration of words' is an expression I liked very much.
@Sandra Feldman, How wonderfully you have acknowledged the dedication of my poem to you, with another beautiful poem. 'my gratitude shall be eternal'- these words are indeed very profound. Thank you.
Truly said, a poem is the outcome of a poet's experience and imagination.
This poem is a perfect vision of a poet's world as he creates from the essence of his mortal soul. Portraying every aspect of life through the orchestration of words, meanings and definitions, every moment becoming history in the making. 'And ultimately disappear(ing) beyond the horizon'. An absolute gem being a witness t the mind. Thank you for a really wonderful poem. RoseAnn
