To Valsa George And Akhtar Jawad Poem by Loke Kok yee

To Valsa George And Akhtar Jawad

Rating: 4.6


There is great truth in the saying that great minds think alike.
And it's seen in your lovely poems which is much to my delight.

Your eyes can clearly perceive what others find hard to see,
Simple lines from creative minds, I think that must be the key.

Your poetry is an inspiration to the rest who are less blessed,
Providing them the guidance for flaws that need to be addressed.

When I'm covered with goose pimples or a tear falls from my eye,
It came from reading your poetry a fact which I cannot deny.

There must be many writer who are just as poetically endowed,
I will seek them out and read their works if time and age allow.

Thanks lok kok yee, you made my day, Valsa s a great poetess and I have the honor that she is my friend, as far as myself is concerned I don't think that I am a real poet. I love poetry and I have been loving poetry since my boyhood buy I know it's just a past time for me. I have no ambitions as a poet. None of my poems is really great but when I see that so many readers like my poems, I continue writing poems. I am once again thankful to your love that you expressed in this beautiful poem.

what a wonderful poem - a tribute to fellow poets! 'There must be many writer who are just as poetically endowed, I will seek them out and read their works if time and age allow. What humility! It is said that no poet reads poems written by others! I have read Valsa's poems.She is truly an inspiration!
