Wonder Words Poem by Bharati Nayak

Wonder Words

Rating: 4.9


Words,
Wonderful words
Whose words are they?
Did I read them before reading?
How did they reach me?

They are the words of God
As written on the green leaves
On petals of
Beautiful flowers
On the moon beams
On the gurgling of dancing streams

The words of God
A lovely song
Rings and rings
As the golden sun
Illuminates the earth
The blue clouds
Rain in sweet mirth
As in rumination
And amazement, I stand.

In Act 2, Scene 2 of 'Hamlet', Polonius asks Hamlet what is he reading, to which he answers 'Words, words, words' - the beauty of the world can be captured through words or art, as the history has shown us. Your poem brings us back to the old question of MIMESIS and inspiration.. A wonderful poem Bharti. Thanks for sharing.

Excellent poem. Your poetic talent has been completely apparent in this poem. I won't forget this poem ever. Words have various colors, sounds and sometimes soundlessness. Poets have the ears to listen to the words of stones too.

i too am convinced, bharati, that the best of what comes out of us, comes through us, is from God. we are vessels, no? or, as i've read from hafez, flutes through which the divine wind blows. -glen

Kuch suni so awaj lagti hair, jaisey umar bhar manta aaya hun isko....... Ye to mera dost hai, humrazz hai, maddadgar hai, bhagwan keh ye tu khuda keh isko...... Grrt penned mam ji
