Turn a great poet
Turn a great poet
You can turn a great poet
Only you should have an art of keeping others quiet
Keep group of four or five to support
Rest other poets may search for safe port
It happens in all the organizations
It becomes known only after some revelations
But exactly what cause we serve by doing so?
We make indecent entry for other poets to go
There is no yard stick for readers to prefer
Some of the ideas are preset and is likely to differ
Yet some kind of favor reflects in trend
This is enough reason for good poet to buckle or bend
In new set up, he may find hardly any one to support
Where as few other poets may kill his chance to anchor at port
None may appreciate his effort to strengthen poetry base
Lot many of them may disappear without facing chase
I have hardly any reason to resent
But of course then spirit of good poetry is absent
You go after established poets with so much to praise
And not a single word for simple poet to boost or raise
Poets are born and not made
As earth gives up nice crops when deeply spade
It is water and natural manure that cultivates fine
Green corps may stand for us to define
Do the words create all magic in verses?
Yes if that is honestly pursued
Poetry may be felt by all even if ignored
As sea waves can't be stopped from rushing to the shore
Bank may feel greatly elated at striking noise
The sound is heard beautifully with sweet voice
As if music is created with each of the passing wave
Ups and down of journey surely represents the fate
