THE SECRET OF MY POEMS
When friends ask me: “ What is your Secret of poetry? What is your inspiration? Whence rhyme and symmetry?” I say when my heart sings a Happy or plaintive song, On its own it is then that My poems come along. That is why they have a rhyme And have a certain flow. If they are from the heart, then Only to hearts they go. I say that my poems are Written without forethought. My poems are nothing but Sad feelings and tears hot. It’s when those tears fall on a Crumpled sheet of paper, They shape into a poem, Poet’s only treasure. * Written in abcb 7-6-7-6 format • Editor’s choice in Poetry Newsletter, 4 July 2007. * Related poems: o "Invalid Entry" o "POETRY: an addiction" M C Gupta 29 March 2005
