Self-Born

Rating: 5.0


My poems are self-born,
I have no role to play at all.
The words are not mine,
The feelings are not mine,
The very writings are also
Not scholarly.
Yet, they are called poetry
By you all.
It is your greatness.
I am nothing and nothing,
After so many writings,
And despite all thinking,
I am not pacified.
I am not able to know
The root of my dissatisfaction.
I have limited knowledge, I know.
Even, I am unable to put
The questions in the proper way.
Am I far from the truth?
But I have heard from the learned,
I am the truth here.
And poems are the fruits
Of my love and truth.
If it is so, let my poems
Grow in the vast sky,
Let me fly with the poems there,
As usual under nature,
Without any fear and favour.

This is a great write. Humbly admitting that the flow comes from not from you. But it is your mind and heart that are working to produce such beautiful poems. Very nice.
