- My Gratitude to My Co -Poets-

**********
I was sad for not sharing the voice
With my beloved poet John Keats,
Who with painful heart eternal odes did compose,
Cried for unhealthy limitation of human mind,
With each passing time He grew to be a complete poet to touch the pristine truth on the theory of beauty as it's prime.

I was sad for not being in touch with the spirit of PB Shelley,
Who with Impetuosity did inspire the dropping humanity with spiritual Mind,
With wrath and wreath did He compose revolutionary verse to usher change in social stratum,
Dreamboat a poet of ultimate flowering of poetic consciousness,
A spirit like the fire God who inspired potency inherent with unbounded imagination.

I was sad for not looking at a Sylvan spirit like William Wordsworth who meditated each passing strain with single breath,
The priest of nature and poet of common folk.
He did write his heart with lucid dream on fair silubject,
The play and display of single being in every object.
The poet of spontaneous fragrance.

I was sad for not imbibing the craze,
The eccentricity and abruptness of Robert Browning,
Who with dramatic Felicity created immortal verse,
The philosopher of dejected hearts,
A lover whom everyone covets.

I was sad for retarded depression
When I think of metaphysical poets,
Donne, Herbert, Marvell and Vaughan,
I did not share their mystic metaphysical Minds.

I was sad for not having company of Nature's beloved son,
The poet of bud and bloom, Lake and lagoon and love and languishment,
Our beloved priest -poetRabindranath and
The world with modern mindslike Hopkins Yeats and Eliot.

I was sad to think for my sudden weird being that wished to have a talk with Shakespeare the great and Marlowe the Master,
They have become bygone past.
Only pain profound did pinch to dream of them.

Now I am rejuvinated with thought new,
I am not an orphan poet,
Nor do I walk alone on the path,
Seeking the footprints in yellow pages to be inspired for poetry the great,

I have got beautiful Minds and pure hearts like 'Me poet yeps the poet' and' Dr Tony Brahmin',
'Kumarmani Mahakul' and Bharati Nayak', Edward Kofi Louis and Jez Brul', Robert Murray Smith and Hazel Durham, Dr Dilip Kumar swain and Sylvia Frances Chan and many more.
They are with me with same thought and same grandeur to show me the way till I breath my last.

I love the poetry of Shelley, Wordsworth, and, in particular, the master of dramatic monologue, Robert Browning. There are many fine, diffuse poets on Poem Hunter. Great poem.
