A Poet Can

Rating: 5.0


A poet can make
a stone weeping
But I can not
I see a stone
just a stone.

A poet can make
a river dancing
But I can not
I see a river
just a river.

A poet can create fire
from the flowing cloud
But I can not
for me cloud is cloud.

A poet can create
a sea or river
out of your eyes
But I can not.

I want to see you
just like my fiance.

it reminds me of a great saying i quote 'if someone claims they love you, but want to see upper or lower from what you are, then they don't love you, they want to see someone else in you.'

Yes a poet can do and undo many things. I've added my 10 to it in favor of optimistic attitude. Nice poem it is.

Poet can’t do all the things you said …but not doing is a ‘great doing’ as you’ve done…finally to poetry you’ve lay your bosom as your beloved…and indeed a poetic sprit…. Thanks for sharing Ms. Nivedita UK 10/10

in those days when i was in school my teacher told us about different types of artists-sculpturist creates sculpture-paiinter paints with color-author writes a book........... at that time i used to think there are so many types of artists but now i think there's only one type 'a poet'. in every other types without poetry the creation's incomplete thats what i think may be im wrong....its a very beutiful poem Sir, kindly do read my poem ' my tribute to beautiful minds '...thanks
