Fate Of Poets Poem by Ramesh T A

Fate Of Poets

Rating: 0.5


Great poets were not honoured when they were alive;
But after death they live immortal in the hearts of many!
Shelley, Keats, Voltaire and Bharati are some to quote;
They fought for freedom of the nation till the end of life!

Why has God created me with glowing knowledge?
Why has forgotten to use it for the welfare of mankind?
Can anyone create beautiful musical instrument, guitar
And throw it in the dust bin along with other wastes?

“Tell me, ” says so Poet Bharati, “O Goddess Sivasakti! ”
Then there were only four friends to do funeral service;
From them only about the great poet is known to the world!
This is the fate of great poets that follows so for all poets!

Why the fate of poets does not change even today here?
For, their creative power is doubted as atheists doubt God!
