Before You Learn To Cook A Soup… Poem by Kesav Venkat Easwaran

Lovely poem, yes you are right we should control what comes out of own mouth or better keep it shut if any bad can do..but lol, also I must understand that there is not necessary need of boiling water for a soup becouse nowadays we can get use of microwaves in this speed world we have its hard to get some pacience..

'Soup' is only an allegoric poetic symbol used to elucidate the poem concept...true, nowadays one need not boil water to prepare soup (this, you know better than me!) but the implication there is one must learn to boil water first before learning serious cooking...thanks a lot Elena, for your nice comment

Kesav, reading your poem, spo many proverbs are runninmg in my head. mindfulness, concentration is essential for healthy living, simple steps prepare one to masater any art, be it speech or cooking. thanks 10 Mamta

‘You learn to boil water first/’Before you learn to cook a soup! ’…nice finish Priming, programming and rationizing are required before jumping… Poetry requires exalted but with aesthetics…it’s priming… Thanks for such a PP [Practical Poetry] 10//10 Ms. Nivedita UK

Well good poetic write

Very lofty...'think(or learn) before you do'...I agree...yes...boiled water is good...I bow to your intelligence....thanks a lot Kesav

shooting out without knowing the basics...as a person without much knowledge in poetry...i too cannot comment..the message apllies to anything for that matter and has been nailed down very well
