Poetry the giant of Literature Long the tale of culture and sage In wisdom, the tryst of ages Shoes the eternal difference If I be worried and lost of hope Not of you. Poem the soul of the literary wild world Long are the days of summer Sharp are the edges of your searing swords. When you cut, it goes beyond incision When it grows, it gives a taste of beauty Poem the evocation of feelings The blood vain of beauty If your wisdom can bring beauty out of pains, I thirst for it. If your culture can bring me humanity, then I want to be you. In the heart of your unfailing beauty, Comes the simmering pleasure of the invisible world. Do not set me free from your grip, In your prison I guarantee comfort. Because what makes me a poet Makes me the hope of my age. For the love of our culture and hope of our world, I choose poetry Even in recession of words I choose you as the seat of hope for our WILD World.
