The Poet Poem by vijay gupta

The Poet



The poet
A kind hearted, imaginative person is called the poet.
He always worries to see
the grievances of others.
He becomes wounded to see the wounds of others.
He cries to hear the cries of the children & women.
Because he has only emotions not power.
Power lies in political leaders & military generals.
Power lies in the pockets of capitalists.
Poet wants peace & love in the society.
But it depends upon the sweet will of the war mongers.
He cries to see the hunger of the people
But he can only cry like the birds
& he can talk as an old man.
He can write like a student.
But he can not do more in the absence of power.
If a poet likes me have the helicopters then,
I dropp the flowers instead of Bombs & shells.
If a poet like me has the guns then I will kill all war mongers of the world.
Who kidnaps the freedom & happiness of the people?
If a poet likes me have affluent money than no body can sleep with hunger.

very good poem.you have expressed your true feelings.Every poet thinks so.But I think you are missing this proverb 'Pen is mightier than sword'.He can do more than others whom you have mentioned in your poem.They have their limitations but poet has no limitation.In the words of Shelley: 'He will watch from dawn to groom The lake reflected sun illume The yellow bees in ivy bloom But from these creat he can Forms more living than real man Nurseling of Immortality. So poet is more powerful than any other man in this world
